EU Commission to discuss common energy procurement for all members-Italy’s Draghi

October 6, 2021

ROME (Reuters) – The European Commission will soon present a plan to become the single buyer for energy for all the European Union member states, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi said on Wednesday.

“The Commission will present a proposal to be discussed at the next European Council,” Draghi told reporters after a EU meeting in Slovenia.

He added he considered building a Europe-wide consortium to stock gas a positive option, although this was not yet under discussion within the bloc.

“We should not be unprepared to spikes in energy price that have consequences for the economy,” Draghi said.
