Energy rationing cannot be ruled out, warns Shell
Rationing of energy in Europe cannot be ruled out, the boss of energy giant Shell has warned, due to worries over the supply of gas from Russia.
Speaking at an energy conference, Ben van Beurden said a “really tough winter in Europe” was ahead, with energy prices set to see “significant” rises.
Energy prices jumped earlier this year after Russia invaded Ukraine.
Russia has also been accused of using gas “as a weapon” by limiting supplies in response to EU sanctions.
