International Energy Agency

The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an autonomous intergovernmental organization established in 1974. Its main role is to promote energy security among its member countries, which are largely developed nations. The IEA provides data, analysis, and policy recommendations to help governments ensure reliable and sustainable energy systems. It also focuses on environmental protection, energy efficiency, and the transition to cleaner energy sources. By fostering cooperation and sharing best practices, the IEA plays a vital role in shaping global energy policies and addressing challenges like climate change and energy supply disruptions.
