The article reviews the global energy crises of the 1970s, 2021, and 2022 in the context of the economic systems energy security. The methodological basis of the research was general scientific and historical methods of the information analysis and assessment: generalization, data analysis and synthesis, logical and comparative analysis. The paper highlights and systematizes specific measures taken by countries to offset the consequences of energy crises, analyzes the effectiveness of these measures in the context of the economic systems energy security. The article also dwells on the causes and course of crises, highlights their common features, features, and differences. The study revealed that a combination of factors such as recovery from COVID, depletion of fossil fuel energy reserves and extreme weather conditions cause a sharp increase in global energy demand. The results of the study can be used as elements for the development of an energy security strategy.
