EASAC: Shale Gas Can't Secure Europe's Energy

GALWAY, IRELAND--November 20, 2014--Written by Martin Lynch, European News Editor for Industrial Info (Galway, Ireland)--Shale gas is not the "silver bullet" that will provide Europe with a future solution to its gas supply problems, according to the European Union's Academies' Science Advisory Council (EASAC)

The EASAC warned that there is "considerable uncertainty over the scale of shale gas resources and whether it is economically viable to extract them in different E.U. Member States."
