The code is encrypted: TRA-A-12 GALSI pipeline . To find the secret dossier, the armored cabinets of the European Agency for Cooperation between Energy Regulators must be opened. The European Parliament has relocated it to none other than Ljubljana, in the heart of Slovenia. It is here that Europe's energy plans, contingent and strategic ones, must be examined by those who deal with the great energy network of the West. A web of pipes and cables, electric and gas transmission, tight and sometimes wider meshes. The mission is to plan energy in the countries of the Union. In the Agency's interactive map, the connection between systems and networks is the real objective of the European strategy.
Hot dossier
The folder of the Algeria-Sardinia-Europe methane pipeline, the second line of methane supply only planned and designed by the Maghreb countries towards the old continent, is a hot dossier. If only for the change of pace of history impressed with the impetuousness of a war on the threshold of the state borders. On February 24th, out of the blue, the energy map was razed to the ground with a lightning fast action and without appeal. When Vladimir Putin, at 3.31 that night, decided to go and take Ukraine, with the shock force of a long-planned war, those energy maps of Europe became waste paper in an instant. A reversal of the horizon that forces Europe and the States, Italy first, to rewrite scenarios and re-establish priorities. One thing is certain, at any moment Europe could lack an energy supply capable of blocking the entire Western economy. From Germany to the Bel Paese, the impact of those closed taps on the Ukrainian border would mean a devastating red light. Thinking of recovering that gas with floating roundabouts, with ships loaded with gas from the United States, to supply no less than 200 million Europeans would mean bringing production and the economy to its knees. It is clear that a not insignificant change of horizon is needed. The ecological transition, planned with wind turbines and photovoltaic panels to be placed in Sardinia, not only does not hold up but is not exactly sustainable in the times and quantities of energy required.
