France inaugurated near Reims the largest battery electricity storage facility, capable of injecting 240 MW into the grid, but it will soon be surpassed by other ongoing projects, addressing the growing need to optimize the use of renewable energy. (translated)
Life in Germany is getting more and more expensive. In September, inflation rose to over three percent. In terms of energy, the increase is even at 14.9 percent. The biggest price driver is fuel. Consumers had to pay almost 50 percent more for fuel in September compared to a year earlier. And what is the federal government doing? They are giving citizens a measly 17 cents, which doesn't even fully reach the consumer. The fuel discount, which comes into effect on October 1 after months of inaction by the Merz government, is a bad joke considering the enormous inflation! Not 17 cents, one euro would be appropriate! A price cap of 1.50 euros for fuel in Germany is urgently needed. This is possible if the CO2 price is abolished, the energy tax is halved, and the value-added tax on fuel and energy is reduced to 7 percent. (translated)

THE PRICE OF GAS IS SOARING! July: +7.4%. September: +5.6%. October: +6.3%. We can lower the price of gas by restoring direct purchases of Russian gas, which is cheaper for the French. Today, we continue to consume it... but much more expensively. Because we are being told this. (translated)
New car sales in France increased by 11.6% in September, with more than 80% of registrations representing electric and hybrid models, supported by purchase assistance. (translated)
Lecornu wants to freeze everything that allows the French to get by: family allowances, activity bonus, housing assistance... Millions of people are going to lose a lot. Meanwhile, the rise in food, energy, and fuel prices continues. We must put an end to this madness. (translated)

„Într-o iarnă normală, aproape 50 de milioane de oameni din Europa nu își pot încălzi locuințele în mod adecvat. Iarna următoare ar putea fi chiar mai dificilă. Prin urmare, luăm situația foarte în serios, ca să nu mai vorbim de industria noastră, care este, de asemenea, sub presiune”Dan Jorgensen, comisarul european pentru energie, a avertizat săptămâna trecută că blocul comunitar se confruntă cu o criză a prețurilor la energie pentru această iarnă și a îndemnat statele membre să continue eforturile pentru a-și completa stocurile și pentru a reduce cererea. #gaze #Europa #iarnă
The gas station is the most modern cash register of the republic. Not Tehran, not Putin, not Trump are cashing in at the pump the loudest. It's the own governments that do that. About half is tax and fees. That's why the price is not going down either. A broken budget needs the (translated)
