The International Energy Agency has launched a policy tracker to monitor government actions in response to the energy market impacts of the conflict in the Middle East.

According to a press release, the tracker provides an up-to-date overview of government measures to conserve energy and protect consumers from rising energy costs.

The tracker presents two main categories of action, including measures aimed at conserving energy and those designed to support consumers.

The IEA has also published a menu of demand-side measures that stakeholders can take to shelter consumers from oil price pressures and support energy security.
