As of September 2026, the OECD energy support measures tracker covers over 240 measures across 49 economies—33 OECD and 16 non-OECD economies. Of these, around 30% are active and targeted, 40% are active but untargeted, and 30% have expired, indicating that a significant share of the measures introduced in response to the energy shock remain in place.
The pattern differs somewhat across country groups. OECD countries account for almost 70% of the total, with measures split almost evenly across the three categories: around one-third are active and targeted, one-third active and untargeted, and one-third expired.
In March 2026, approximately two-thirds of announced measures were temporary and around one-third were targeted, with fewer than one-third combining both features. This was broadly in line with the early response to the 2022–23 energy crisis, when around 36% of measures announced in March–April were both temporary and targeted. By September, the tracker shows that targeted measures remain an important part of the policy response, while a substantial share of measures have either remained active or expired.
