29 October 2026 (date announced) · institutional · confidence: confirmed · status: scheduled · impact 3/5 · EU relevance 5/5

Why it matters

The Irish Presidency’s first formal Energy Council, in Luxembourg, as autumn heating demand rises. It follows the informal meeting in Dublin on 28-29 September, where ministers discussed energy affordability, market disruption and energy security. A formal Council can adopt positions on legislation; the informal one could not. The Council publishes the agenda highlights about a week before the meeting.

What to watch

• Which energy files reach a general approach or a progress report once the agenda highlights are published.
• The line ministers take on energy prices and affordability going into winter.
• Any conclusions or Presidency summary on energy security and dependence on imported gas.
