Medill students explore how Germany is coping with its energy crisis

Student Joslyn Richardson records a standup in front of the Höegh Esperanze, the first Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) to arrive in Germany. FSRUs convert liquified natural gas (LNG) from transport ships back into a gaseous state.

Germany is experiencing an energy crisis after the flow of pipeline gas from Russia was cut off following that country’s invasion of Ukraine. In February 2023, a group of master’s students from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism went on a week-long “Medill Explores” trip to Germany to learn about and write stories on German energy and climate policies. Witness their journey through photos taken along the way!

This story was featured in our series, A Greener Zeitgeist: Medill Reports from Germany.
