BBC: IPPR: Europe can reduce reliance on Russian gas
The European Union can dramatically reduce reliance on Russian gas through energy efficiency targets, centre-left think tank IPPR has said.
A binding energy-saving target of 35% by 2030 would cut gas imports by a third, IPPR said.
The UK government has opposed such a target, saying it would be restrictive, and may not be cost-effective.
However, a security expert said energy supplies from volatile regions risk disruption.
