        "summary": "The International Energy Agency (IEA) has proposed a package of demand-side measures to cushion the economic fallout from oil supply disruptions following the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which has caused the largest interruption in oil supplies in history and driven crude prices above $100 per barrel. These 10 options, targeted at households, businesses, and governments, primarily focus on reducing fuel consumption in land transportation but also cover air travel, cooking, and industry, including measures like remote working, lowering speed limits, promoting public transport, carpooling, and optimising industrial operations. The proposals aim to enhance affordability and reduce pressure on energy resources amid escalating prices for derivatives like diesel, aviation fuel, and LPG.",
        "content": "<p>Moscow (ANTARA) - The International Energy Agency (IEA) on Friday\nproposed a package of demand management measures to dampen the economic\nimpact from oil supply disruptions following the blockade of the Strait\nof Hormuz.<\/p>\n<p>The IEA detailed 10 demand-side options that households, businesses,\nand governments can implement to protect themselves from the current oil\nprice shocks and reduce pressure on affordability\u2026 Most of these options\nrelate to fuel consumption in land transportation, but they also include\nfuel use for air transportation, cooking, and industry, as stated in the\nreport.<\/p>\n<p>The conflict around Iran has caused the largest oil supply disruption\nin history, as the Strait of Hormuz - through which around 20 percent of\nglobal oil exports typically pass - is practically closed, according to\nthe IEA.<\/p>\n<p>This situation has pushed crude oil prices above $100 per barrel and\ntriggered sharper increases in prices for derivative products such as\ndiesel, aviation fuel, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).<\/p>\n<p>In this context, the IEA proposes implementing remote working where\npossible, reducing speed limits on highways by at least 10 kilometres\nper hour, and encouraging the use of public transport to save petrol\nconsumption.<\/p>\n<p>The IEA also considers staggered use of private vehicles and\nincreased car-sharing practices as effective steps. Other measures\ninclude optimising commercial transportation and reducing business air\ntravel.<\/p>\n<p>The agency also proposes redirecting LPG use from the transportation\nsector to more critical sectors like cooking, while deeming petrol more\nappropriate for vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>To curb LPG use in cooking activities, the IEA encourages the\nadoption of electric stoves and other modern cooking methods.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the IEA recommends optimising oil use in the\npetrochemical industry, which accounts for about two-thirds of\nindustrial sector oil demand.<\/p>\n<p>The IEA adds that industrial facilities can save fuel in the short\nterm through maintenance checks and more efficient equipment operation,\nincluding shutting them down when not in use.<\/p>",
