This call for evidence is an important first step in the preparation of the revision seeking views from citizens and stakeholders and drawing lessons from past crises and looking at future challenges. In addition to this very broad call for evidence, the Commission will also hold more targeted consultations for stakeholders with more in-depth and technical knowledge. The revision of the EU energy security framework will seek to strengthen the Union’s energy security, ensuring that the EU energy system is sufficiently secure and resilient, and well adapted to a changing energy, climate and geopolitical landscape. With this review, the Commission wants to address new emerging risks to the energy system such as physical and cyber threats to critical infrastructure, as well as climate-change related risks and the changing geopolitical landscape.

This call for evidence is open until 13 October 2025.
