The EU's coal ban (Aug 2022) was the first full break from a Russian #energy commodity: imports fell to zero, while alternatives filled the gap.

🎤 Our Executive Director & Founder, Svitlana Romanko, will speak at 2 sessions at #EUSEW2026:
📅 Tue 9 June | 15:30–17:00
REPowerEU: From Russian fossil fuels to energy independence & sustainability
📅 Wed 10 June | 15:30–17:00
