Vahrenholt wrote that the political actions of the EU and Germany have exacerbated the impending gas shortage situation. The planned restructuring of gas imports according to climate standards could lead to the USA, Nigeria, and Qatar offering their supplies to other buyers. Environment Minister Schneider stated that politics can set standards. Vahrenholt criticized that climate protection is thereby put ahead of providing warm homes. He attributed the increase in electricity network charges to the energy transition. A 24 percent increase in 2027 is a sign of further rising electricity prices. Citing an EWI study from 2024, he mentioned long-term possible network charges of 13.5 €ct/kWh for industry instead of the current 2.86 €ct/kWh, as well as 27 €ct/kWh for households instead of 9.2 €ct/kWh. He wrote that these costs are unaffordable for citizens and threaten industry in Germany, and he called for the energy transition to be stopped. https://t.co/WTTq25RXMl #Energiewende #Klimapolitik #Strompreise (translated)
