Teresa Ribera : Energy strategy and green transition in Brussels

Teresa Ribera, Spain’s Minister of Ecology, is emerging as a prime candidate for a position as European Commissioner in the new team headed by Ursula von der Leyen.
Her potential appointment comes at a pivotal moment for the European Union’s (EU) energy policy, as debates intensify over the future of the European Green Pact.
Ribera is keen to link economic competitiveness and ecological transition, a key area of development for the EU against a backdrop of growing international pressure on energy markets.
