Azerbaijan — and the South Caucasus as a whole — can certainly contribute to Europe’s long-term energy security by exporting green power and green hydrogen, former adviser to UN Secretary-General Jeffrey Sachs told AZERTAC.

He noted that as the EU intensifies its efforts to decarbonize and diversify its energy sources, Azerbaijan’s renewable energy potential becomes strategically important: "The country’s access to solar and wind resources, along with its existing energy infrastructure and export corridors, positions it well to meet part of Europe’s growing clean energy demand. By investing in large-scale renewable projects and hydrogen production, Azerbaijan can become a reliable and sustainable energy partner. Furthermore, regional cooperation and alignment with European technical standards will enhance integration and long-term stability in energy trade."
