Volume 43: The Protection of Critical Energy Infrastructure Against Emerging Security Challenges
Abstract

This chapter argues that in the new security reality after the Cold War, NATO and partner nations need to reconsider the approach to energy security. Using modern technology in the age of globalization, non-state actors have started to threaten critical infrastructures that ensure our commodity and welfare. At the same time, energy thirst and the pursuit of cheap energy have significantly affected the environment. As a result, the concept of energy security, understood as the process of securing supply, needs to be changed.
