Abstract
This study aims to analyze the geopolitics of energy and its role in shaping influence and control over energy resources globally, the research dealt with the relationship between production and energy consumption and geopolitical balances, with a focus on the impact of economic sanctions and changes in energy markets. The results showed that the United States has become the largest oil and gas producer, while China is leading the transition towards renewable energy with huge investments in solar and wind energy, the study also revealed that sanctions on Russia have shifted European markets towards US and Qatari liquefied gas, reshaping the balance of power in the energy sector. Despite the global trend towards renewable energy, oil and gas remain strategically important, but within new market dynamics that reduce the monopoly of traditional energy-producing countries, the study recommended the need to diversify energy sources, promote investments in renewable technologies, and develop more flexible policies to ensure the stability of global energy markets.
