“All Arguments for Security of Supply Exchanged”
Berlin. On Friday, representatives of the federal government met with representatives of the energy industry and financial markets to discuss security of supply in the coming winter and beyond. The meeting took place in the Chancellery and was led by Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck (Greens).
Interconnections and funding
According to Habeck, it was “a very good exchange” in which “all arguments for security of supply” were discussed. In particular, the participants spoke about the importance of international interconnections and the funding of energy infrastructure.
Habeck emphasized that Germany has made “good progress” in terms of security of supply. However, he also warned that “the situation is not yet over.” The federal government is therefore continuing to work on ensuring security of supply in the coming winter and beyond.
LNG terminals and gas storage
Among the measures that are being taken are the construction of LNG terminals and the expansion of gas storage capacities. Habeck also announced that the government is working on a new gas price brake.
The participants in the meeting also discussed the situation on the financial markets. Habeck said that the government is “monitoring the situation very closely” and is “prepared to take action” if necessary.
Industry representatives optimistic
Representatives of the energy industry expressed their optimism about Germany’s security of supply. They emphasized that the companies are working hard to ensure that there is enough energy available for households and businesses.
The meeting in the Chancellery was part of a series of consultations that the federal government is holding with stakeholders in the energy sector. The government wants to ensure that all necessary measures are taken to ensure security of supply in the coming winter and beyond.
