Avrupa’nın Enerji Arz Güvenliği Açısından Yükselen Aktör: Romanya

ÖzellikleUkrayna Krizi’nden sonra doğalgaz temini konusunda Rusya’ya olan bağımlılığı aşma çabasındaki Avrupa, alternatif kaynak arayışına hız vermekte ve bu noktada Romanya’dan hem bir transit hem de bir kaynak ülke olarak faydalanma fırsatı ile karşı karşıya kalmaktadır. Sadece doğalgaz değil, kaya gazı ve rüzgâr enerjisi gibi farklı kaynaklarıyla Avrupa’nın enerji ihtiyacına cevap vermesi beklenen Romanya, içinde bulunduğu AGRI Projesi aracılığıyla transit ülke olma konumunu da güçlendirmektedir. Ancak AGRI Projesi’nin işlerliği için Avrupa Birliği merkezlerine uzanacak boru hatları yapımının/tadilatının ve tedarikçi ülke sayısının arttırılmasının zorunluluğu, Romanya’nın hassas ve zaafları bulunan bir güçlenme süreci içinde bulunduğunu kanıtlamaktadır

AN EMERGING CONTRIBUTOR TO THE EUROPEAN SECURITY OF ENERGY SUPPLY: ROMANIA

In order to diminish its energy dependence to the Russian Federation, Europe hastened its search for alternative supplies and rediscovered Romania both as a transit state and a reliable energy supplier especially after the Ukrainian Crisis. It is estimated that Romania would address European energy needs not only with its unexploited natural gas reserves but also with its miscellaneous energy resources like shale gas and wind power. Moreover, Romania will be able to take an active role in European future energy policy formulations as an energy transit state. Especially the AGRI The Azerbaijan-Georgia-Romania Interconnector Project reveals Romania’s strategic position in European gas calculations. However, the functioning of the AGRI Project depends on the construction and/or alteration of pipelines to the European Union centers and the incorporation of new supplier countries to the project
