How did Europe’s gas and electricity prices fall after the highs of last year?
With the war raging on our continent, we had to take measures to protect people from high #energy prices.
It was the beginning of #REPowerEU plan, which meant:
- increasing gas reserves,
- saving energy consumption,
- purchasing gas jointly,
working with reliable partners like Norway and the United States,
- Increasing the deployment of renewables across the #EU.
Our #EUDataCrunch depicts its singular impact.
@EU_Commission Le vrai prix de ma vraie facture que j'ai vu avec mes vrais yeux et payé avec mon vrai argent.
Merci la Comission européenne. Sans vous, je... mince je suis en train de pleurer... c'est engie qui me demande 2000 euros de rappel pour avoir chauffé entre décembre et février dernier la chambre de mes enfants à 20° au lieu de m'en tenir à 17 🤦
@EU_Commission another Brexit benefit for the UK *said no-one ever*
Well my energy costs sure didn’t get lower. Still at an all time high. Nothing change.
@EU_Commission Well, clearly Europe has been agressive enough in purchasing LNG on the World market.
@EU_Commission and yet the providers seize the moment and lock customers at 0.35€ per kwh for 12 months. Windfall tax + force adjustment of the prices without lock ins is what is missing for the public to feel your efforts.
@EU_Commission the latest renewables auction set a maxim price of 44p per megawatt hour. That's 0.3p more than my supplier gives me for my exported solar. Should have bid
@EU_Commission Be interesting to see plots for some third countries against this ... ahem cough .. uk for instance?
What about nordstream sabotage and USA having a lot of gaz to sell to Europe ?
Can you elaborate on this?
@EU_Commission yet the consumers are still paying peak prices for home energy....
@EU_Commission now get rid of gas completely (and also coal & oil) and we’ll start clapping slowly 😉
@EU_Commission Don't worry, the price is going back up thanks to OPEC and Putin.
