The vulnerability of energy-related infrastructure presents a further complication to discussions of energy security. Much of the world's critical energy supplies must transit across increasingly uncertain terrain with varied security. Despite the changing context and the myriad threats posed to energy infrastructure along the supply chain, there is no substantial research effort that important linkages, such as those related to the strategic targeting decisions of today's violent non-state actors (VNSA).This is partly because there are no specialized, publicly available databases with detailed coverage of non-state threats to energy infrastructure.
"Mapping Energy Infrastructure Vulnerabilities in Conflict-Affected Regions," an focused on the results from the new Energy Infrastructure Attack Database, pioneered by researchers at the Zurich-based Center for Security Studies. The discussion was led by Jennifer Giroux, a lead researcher at the Center for Security Studies.
