The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an autonomous intergovernmental organization established in 1974. Its primary purpose is to promote energy security among its member countries, which are mainly from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The IEA provides data, analysis, and policy recommendations to help countries ensure reliable, affordable, and clean energy. In addition to energy security, the IEA focuses on sustainable energy development and environmental protection. It conducts research on various energy sources, including renewable energy, fossil fuels, and nuclear energy. The agency also plays a crucial role in addressing global energy challenges, such as climate change and energy access.
