Özet

Bu çalışma, Avrupa Birliği’nin (AB) enerji politikalarını bir dış politika aracı olarak nasıl kurguladığını ve bu yolla yumuşak güç inşasını nasıl gerçekleştirdiğini incelemektedir. Sürdürülebilirlik, yeşil dönüşüm ve çevre temelli stratejiler, AB’nin norm aktarımı, değer temelli ilişkiler kurması ve iş birliğine dayalı dış politika üretiminde belirleyici rol üstlenmektedir. Enerji diplomasisi, arz güvenliği, karbon nötr hedefler, yenilenebilir dönüşüm süreçleri ve çevresel düzenlemeler üzerinden AB’nin küresel ölçekte etkisini artırma stratejileri ayrıntılı olarak analiz edilmektedir. Böylece enerji politikalarının, AB’nin normatif gücünü pekiştiren, uluslararası sistemde liderliğini güçlendiren ve stratejik özerkliğini destekleyen çok boyutlu bir mekanizma olduğu vurgulanmaktadır.

Abstract

This study examines how the European Union (EU) designs its energy policies as a foreign policy tool and how it achieves soft power through this approach. Sustainability, green transformation, and environment-based strategies play a decisive role in the EU's norm transfer, value-based relationship building, and cooperation-based foreign policy production. The EU's strategies for increasing its global influence through energy diplomacy, supply security, carbon neutrality targets, renewable transition processes, and environmental regulations are analyzed in detail. Thus, it is emphasized that energy policies are a multidimensional mechanism that reinforces the EU's normative power, strengthens its leadership in the international system, and supports its strategic autonomy.
