Europe’s race to secure its energy supplies — live updates – POLITICO

Published by Sam Flores

The fallout from the U.S.-Israel war in Iran is already rippling through global markets. But the worst may still lie ahead for Europe. As oil and gas supplies tighten and prices spike, the shock is seeping into every corner of the economy, from manufacturing to borrowing costs to demand shifts. Against this gloomy backdrop, how can policymakers contain the damage to avoid a deeper economic impact? And beyond the short term, what will this energy shock mean for Europe’s households and its industrial competitiveness? The crisis is also accelerating another shift: Europe’s clean transition. It’s no longer seen predominately as a climate imperative, but a question of economic security. Which policy moves will help safeguard the bloc’s sovereignty while reducing its emissions? Follow all the discussions and news from POLITICO’s Energy & Climate Forum as we unpack these hot-button issues with the policymakers, industry leaders and policy experts shaping Europe’s response.

We could all learn from Australia’s brewing movement to tax gas

We could all learn from Australia’s brewing movement to tax gas

Published by skeptic

During a global moment where oil prices are spiking tremendously, a movement to increase gas taxes is brewing in Australia. And if it does succeed, it could provide a template that could help other countries not only fund their own prosperity, but reduce the tremendous damage done by fossil fuels. At issue are Australia’s exports of petroleum gas, largely in the form of liquified methane. While Australia is a generally wealthy nation, its economy is less complex than many other advanced nations, and relies heavily on extraction of natural resources. Australia’s export value is concentrated in raw material exports, rather than complex manufacturing. Much of Australia’s wealth comes from mining, but as you can see on the charts below, petroleum products make up a big chunk as well. Australia is in fact the third-largest global exporter of petroleum gas behind US and Norway, and its exports mainly go to Japan, China, and Southeast Asian countries.

Drivers fuel up at a Costco gas station in Roseville, Mich. Paul Sancya/AP hide caption toggle caption Paul Sancya/AP Stay up to date with our Up First newsletter sent every weekday morning. In the hunt for cheaper gas, people are going out of their way for discounted fuel at Costco and Walmart — many of them visiting for the first time. Drivers also are now filling up more often, but topping up with fewer gallons at a time. As the U.S. war in Iran continues to drive up gas prices, Costco’s gas stations have been selling record amounts of fuel, executives told investors on a call Thursday. In fact, Costco had never sold as much gas as it did between April and mid-May, CEO Ron Vachris said, with stations having to get multiple daily gas deliveries to keep up. People have been willing to drive further and wait in line longer to buy cheaper gas. “A lot of members are increasing their frequency of visiting the gas station to top up in between what would …

Mario Tama/Getty Images hide caption toggle caption Mario Tama/Getty Images Stay up to date with our Up First newsletter, sent every weekday morning. President Trump has called for a temporary waiver of the federal gas tax, which costs drivers 18.4 cents per gallon. It’s one of several attempts to relieve pain at the pump as voters grow increasingly frustrated with gasoline prices, which have hit four-year highs thanks to the oil trade disruption triggered by the war with Iran. A national gas tax holiday would require an act of Congress. Lawmakers have floated the idea, with several bills introduced before Trump called for a temporary pause on the tax. But even with the president’s backing, it’s not clear whether his proposal will make it to the floor for a vote. Gas tax holidays are controversial, with advocates arguing they provide quick relief and with critics denouncing them as costly and even counterproductive. Here’s what you …
