The Role of Middle Powers Along Eurasian Clean Energy Supply Chains

Abstract

This panel explores the changing role that middle powers are playing in the transition to clean energy. It examines how these countries are positioning themselves within emerging supply chains and how they are exploiting their leverage points to gain influence and capture value. It combines perspectives from international relations, IPE and green industrial policy to gain a better understanding of how middle powers are navigating clean energy supply chains in a climate of intensifying Great Power rivalry.
