The IEA and Energy Security Members Agree: • That there is no sustainable development without secure energy supply • That diversification of supply and distribution (by source and type) will be pursued • That transparency in world energy markets and effective responses to supply disruptions are critical • To foster dialogue and data between energy producers and consumers • 1970s-19809s: Reducing the level of imports/ managing risks associated with imports • Contemporary: Includes risks such as accidents, terrorism, underinvestment, poorly designed markets • Short term responses: coordinated use of energy stocks, temporary blackouts, redirected supply flows (ERMs triggered at 7%; CERMs at any level) • Medium and long term: increase energy efficiency, diversify fuels and sources, ensure adequate reserves margins
Where does the SPR fit in? The United States SPR is the largest supply of emergency crude oil in the world. (It currently has the capacity to hold 727 million barrels). Congress approved a decision to expand capacity to 1 billion barrels. Decisions to withdraw oil are made by the President under the Energy Policy and Conservation act. There have been two emergency draw-downs of the SPR: during Operation Desert Storm and after Hurricane Katrina. IEA Member countries hold approximately 1.4 billion govt. controlled barrels of oil Data from the US Department of Energy website
