Politico: NATO could face aviation fuel shortages during a large-scale war

NATO forces could face an aviation fuel shortage in the event of a large-scale conflict over the next decade.

Operativ Media reports, citing Politico, which referenced a report by the NATO Energy Security Centre of Excellence.

The report notes that declining refining capacity in Europe and the shift away from fossil fuels create serious risks for military aviation fuel supplies. It states that fuel demand would surge sharply during a major conflict, while existing reserves would be insufficient to meet it.
