As part of the so-called green gas quota, operators will also be allowed to mix blue hydrogen into the gas network, meaning hydrogen that is obtained from fossil natural gas - at a high energy cost. And that basically says everything about the absurd energy policy of this government. (translated)
The author wrote that the trial against the leader of a Ukrainian sabotage group began the day before. The group blew up Germany's most important natural gas supply pipeline, Nord Stream. They acted on behalf of Ukraine's highest military leadership, as the defendant and his defense explicitly stated, according to the author. #UkrainischeKrise #NordStream #Energieversorgung #UA #DE (translated)

Daniele Ganser wrote that Donald Trump spoke on the phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 9, 2026, and agreed with him on extensive diesel deliveries. Russia is supposed to provide more than 300,000 tons of diesel for the world market and the USA in October, and an additional 500,000 tons in November. Ganser interpreted this as the lifting of US sanctions against Russian diesel. Ganser cited Trump's domestic political pressure due to high diesel prices before the congressional elections on November 3, 2026, as the reason for the move. The economic war of the USA and the EU had not forced Russia to its knees, he wrote. Instead, the populations in the USA and the EU were suffering from high energy prices because they had cut themselves off from Russian oil and gas. Ganser advocated for Germany to end the economic war against Russia, to resume imports of Russian natural gas and oil, and to repair the Nord Stream pipelines. Chancellor Friedrich Merz does not want this and continues to beat the war drums, while high energy prices heavily burden Germany, Ganser wrote. #Wirtschaftskrieg #Energiekrise #Russland (translated)
The author wrote that natural gas reserves beneath German soil could supply Germany for many years; some experts speak of 20 years. In recent years, no party has dared to challenge the fracking taboo, while LNG gas has been transported across the Atlantic. The contribution ended with the incomplete words "Thanks to." #Energiewende #Energiepolitik #Fracking #DE (translated)

The European gas price rose to over 80 euros per megawatt hour on Thursday, after previously being below 70 euros for a time last week, which is attributed to fears of possible US attacks on Iran. #Erdgaspreise #Energiekrise #Thermoenergie (translated)
Vienna has achieved third place in the Greenpeace ranking for phasing out gas among 15 European capitals, but due to the high proportion of natural gas in district heating and waste incineration, it receives only 60 out of 100 points for actual emissions. #Energiewende #Gasausstieg #Umweltschutz (translated)
Serbia and Russia have extended their gas agreement by three months, with Serbia continuing to be supplied at a significantly reduced price of 318 euros per 1000 cubic meters, instead of paying the current market price of 868 euros. #Serbien #Russland #Erdgas (translated)

Federal Minister of Economics Katherina Reiche has commissioned the state energy company Sefe to store eight terawatt-hours of natural gas by December 15, 2026, in order to increase stocks in light of geopolitical risks and strengthen the resilience of Germany's gas supply before winter. #Gasspeicher #Energiepolitik #Krisenvorsorge (translated)
Italy wants to delay the disastrous CO2 pricing of heating oil, natural gas, and fuels - the ETS2 - together with the Czech Republic. Now it is extremely important that Germany joins such an initiative. However, since Friedrich Merz has recently been playing the full-fledged climate chancellor again to win the favor of his red-green friends, the chances for reason are rather slim. Would the chances be better with Boris Rhein? #Klimapolitik #CO2Bepreisung #Energiepreise (translated)
Die Aufhebung des Verbots der CO₂-Endlagerung in ausgebeuteten Erdgasfeldern könnte die Energiewende in Österreich um Jahrzehnte hinauszögern, da Unsicherheiten über die Langzeitstabilität und die Kosten der Lagerstätten bestehen. #CO2Speicherung #ErneuerbareEnergien #Klimaschutz
Die rumänische OMV-Tochter Petrom und der staatliche Partner Romgaz planen, im ersten Halbjahr 2027 die erste Gasförderung im Rahmen des „Neptun Deep“-Projekts im Schwarzen Meer aufzunehmen, was Rumänien zum größten Gasproduzenten der EU machen könnte. #NeptunDeep #Erdgas #Rumänien
