Energy prices might spike this winter - IEA boss
By Tom EspinerBusiness reporter, BBC News
Energy prices could spike this winter forcing governments to step in and subsidise bills again, The Head of The International Energy Agency has said.
If the Chinese economy strengthens quickly and there is a harsh winter, gas prices could rise, putting pressure on consumers, Fatih Birol said.
He added that governments should push for energy-saving and boost renewables.
However a UK government spokesperson said energy bills are set to fall by an average £430 this month.
Gas prices soared after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, driving up energy bills around The World .
A Number of governments then stepped in with support for households, including in the UK, to try to soften The Blow to consumers.
Mr Birol told The Bbc 's Today programme that many European governments made " strategic mistakes" including an over-reliance on Russia for energy, and that foreign policy had been " blindfolded" by short-term commercial decisions.
He Said this winter " we cannot rule out" another spike in gas prices.
" In a scenario where the Chinese economy is very strong, buys a lot of energy from the markets, and we have a harsh winter, we may see strong upward pressure under natural gas prices, which in turn will put an extra burden on consumers, " He Said .
The Chinese economy had been bouncing back after Covid restrictions were lifted, but recently its economy has been slowing down.
Ratings agency S& P Global This Week cut its forecast for Chinese growth, saying " The Risk is that its recovery loses more steam amid weak confidence among consumers and in the housing market".
Investment banks including Goldman Sachs have also been cutting forecasts for Chinese growth.
Nevertheless, Mr Birol said governments including the UK should " continue to push measures to save energy, especially as we enter the winter".
They should also push renewable technologies so they " see The Light of day as soon as possible" and cut The Time it takes for them to get permits, and look for " Alternative Energy options" He Said .
He Said he " wouldn't rule out blackouts" this winter as " part of the game".
" We do not know yet how strongly the Chinese economy will rebound, " He Said .
National Grid said Last Winter that short power cuts were a Possibility - in The End , This Was not necessary.
A UK government spokesperson said: " We spent billions to protect families when prices rose over winter covering nearly half a typical household's energy bill, with them set to fall by around £430 on average from this month. "
Oil licensesRussia's war in Ukraine led to a " gold rush" of new fossil fuel exploration, and the UK defied climate warnings by issuing a new licensing round for North Sea oil and gas.
More Than 100 applications have been submitted to drill for new oil and gas in the North Sea .
This Was at odds with international climate scientists who say fossil fuel projects should be closed down, not expanded.
They say there can be no new projects if there is to be a chance of keeping global temperature rises under 1. 5C.
Mr Fatih said " if The World is serious" about the " climate cause" then " we have to reduce the use of oil and gas significantly in The Next years to come".
If we can reduce consumption, existing oil and gas fields will be enough to meet declining demand, he added.
He Said he has discussions with The Chief executives of UK oil companies.
Mr Fatih said he has " no problem" with oil firms making profits, but if they say: " I Am going to increase my production by four million barrels per day, and my company's strategy is In Line with the Paris Climate Agreement - it doesn't work, there is a problem here. "
The Rosebank field in the North Sea , which has the potential to produce 500 million barrels of oil, could be approved by the government within weeks.
The UK government said it was " committed to reaching net zero by 2050 and have already come a long way to meet that target, cutting emissions faster than any other G7 country while keeping the economy growing and with low-carbon sources like renewables and nuclear providing half of the UK's electricity generation".
But a spokesperson added " the transition to cleaner energy cannot happen overnight and we will continue to need oil and gas over The Coming decades, as recognised by The Independent Climate Change Committee".
