Original: EU nations seek energy alternatives after spending over $113 billion extra since Iran war began

European Union countries are looking for new energy suppliers after the conflict involving Iran added more than $113 billion in extra energy costs since it began. The figure reflects the higher prices governments and consumers have paid for oil and gas while supply routes and markets were disrupted, prompting renewed efforts to secure alternative sources and reduce dependence on volatile regions.

Why now: The large reported cost of the conflict has renewed public and political concern over Europe's energy security.
