Agree

Yes, but not in heavily populated areas

This position aligns with the ECR's tendency to support pragmatic solutions to energy needs. By advocating for fracking outside heavily populated areas, they can address energy security concerns while also mitigating potential risks to public health and safety, reflecting a balanced approach to energy policy.

Agree

Yes

The European Conservatives and Reformists Party (ECR) generally supports policies that enhance energy independence and security. Given their conservative stance, they might view hydraulic fracking as a means to achieve these goals. However, the ECR also recognizes the importance of environmental concerns and the need for a balanced approach to energy policy, which might temper their outright support for fracking.

Slightly agree

No, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources instead

The ECR has shown interest in sustainable energy resources as part of a broader energy mix. However, their primary focus on energy security and independence, alongside a conservative approach to economic and industrial policy, suggests that while they support sustainable energy, they might not see it as an immediate replacement for traditional energy sources like oil and natural gas.

Neutral

No, more research is needed to measure the long term effects of fracking

The ECR's position on the need for more research into the long-term effects of fracking is not clearly defined. They are likely to support evidence-based policy-making but also weigh the immediate benefits of energy security and economic growth against potential long-term environmental impacts.

Disagree

No

While the ECR might have reservations about the environmental impact of hydraulic fracking, their overall policy orientation towards energy security and independence could make them less likely to outright oppose fracking. They might instead advocate for a balanced approach that considers both energy needs and environmental protection.
