European University at St. Petersburg invites international students, young professionals, and expats in St. Petersburg to join a new series of open lectures in English on Russia's Past and Present.
The second open lecture of the series: Recent Changes in Energy Markets: Impacts on Russia by prof. Irina Mironova
Venue: Freedom Space (7, Kazanskaya street)
Russia is one of the leading exporters of energy resources and natural gas in particular. Key developments in energy markets influence Russia’s standing in target markets, and its policies. In this lecture, Irina Mironova aims to review several large trends in energy and, more narrowly, natural gas markets, and their impact on Russia’s energy policy. The following developments of the global energy picture will be discussed:
- Climate policies on the rise in various parts of the world;
- The rise in global liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply;
- The growing importance of natural gas price indices (“commoditization” of the market) and historically low level of natural gas prices.
