Energy Post would like to thank all of our readers and contributors for a terrific first half of the year. Your contributions and sharing via social media has helped drive the debate we seek to stimulate about Europe and energy. We’re taking a short break now but we’ll be back on Monday 17 August with new content. In the meantime, please keep reading, sharing and telling us what you think. Enjoy the summer! Â
Our goal at Energy Post is to provide you with new and valuable insights that help make sense of what is happening in energy policies and markets. Why? Because energy is too important a subject to be left to special interests. Energy Post is a fully independent venture dedicated to providing you with first-class, original analysis, interviews and investigation. We’re a free-access platform for debate about the European energy sector.
As said above, we’re taking a short break and will be back with new content on Monday 17 August. In the meantime, you may want to catch up on some articles you missed in the last few months. Here’s a list of our top ten best-read articles over the last three months to get you started:
