Sustainable Development Goals aim for a better future, but gains are threatened by conflict and governance failures, exacerbated by climate change. While research on energy security is well-established, conceptual-analytical research on sustainability transitions has paid little attention to security threats as factors influencing transitions or security policy as part of policy mixes. This paper combines policy coherence and integration analysis of energy and security strategy documents with sustainability transitions’ research, considering how landscape pressures and energy niches are presented in documents pertaining to Estonia, Finland and Scotland during 2006–2020. The findings show that security and energy policies present a functional overlap. Yet, policy integration and coherence are insufficiently addressed, conflicts created by coexisting low-carbon and hydrocarbon-based security considerations. An increasingly multifaceted landscape creates a complicated policy environment where pursuing policy coherence becomes harder. Despite the accelerating energy transition, the security implications of energy niches have received too little attention.

可持续发展目标旨在创造更美好的未来，但由于气候变化加剧了冲突和治理失灵，收益受到威胁。尽管对能源安全的研究已经很成熟，但是有关可持续性转变的概念分析研究却很少关注作为影响转变的因素的安全威胁或作为政策组合一部分的安全政策。本文考虑了在2006-2020年间有关爱沙尼亚，芬兰和苏格兰的文件中如何提出景观压力和能源壁ni，将能源和安全战略文件的政策一致性和整合分析与可持续发展研究相结合。研究结果表明，安全和能源政策存在功能重叠。但是，政策整合和协调性得不到充分解决，由低碳和基于碳氢化合物的安全考虑因素共同造成的冲突。日益多样化的格局造成了一个复杂的政策环境，在这个环境中，追求政策一致性变得越来越困难。尽管能源过渡加速，但能源壁the的安全隐患却很少受到关注。
