Summary

It's been more than three months since the US attacked Iran, leading to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz that carries 20% of the world's oil and gas. The shock to energy markets has been so intense that some countries are taking longer-term measures to cope. This week on Zero , Akshat Rathi and Peter Guest explore the history of policy responses to energy shocks and what’s different in the 2020s. Read Akshat's feature article here: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2026-energy-transition-iran-war Zero is a production of Bloomberg Green . Our producer is Oscar Boyd.
