Europe's energy security is a very relevant and debatable topic today, especially since the Russia Ukraine conflict energy security is becoming a challenge for Europe. Many countries in the European Union do not have sufficient fossil energy resources and are dependent on neighboring, energy-rich countries. Such dependence on other countries in the EU is useless and even dangerous, both economically and politically or in terms of energy security. The EU faces serious energy security challenges due to its high dependence on external energy exporters. Countries that export energy resources can manipulate them and exert both economic and political pressure. The main problem is how to assess the energy transformation opportunities while strengthening energy security. Currently, there is a lack of research that would propose solutions to increase energy security on a national scale. Renewable energy solutions would allow achieving these goals, thus creating synergy with economic benefits. During the study, energy business representatives were interviewed in order to understand market trends and attitudes. When processing the data using the factor analysis method, results were obtained that reveal a clear connection between renewable energy and energy security. Research shows that geopolitical security becomes an important aspect when the volume of renewable energy deployment increases.
