New operational paragraphs call for banning Russian gas by 2027, sanctions on LNG carriers, and diversification plans. The report broadens energy security to include defence, cyber threats, critical infrastructure, and affordability risks. It adds provisions on data, standardisation, and ENTSO-E cooperation, and updates the security of supply architecture.
