Households in the Nordic country have already been told to prepare for rolling power cuts in the winter, as there will be no supplies from Russia to help meet peak demand.

Subsidies, which will be incorporated into power bills, are expected to absorb up to 94% of the rise in monthly power bills for households and 89% of the rise for small and medium-sized firms.

Overall, the planned total capacity of the MBR solar park is 5 GW, to be reached by 2030.

When Russia invaded Ukraine in March, things went from tightness of supply to impending disaster. Russia, through a complex network of pipelines, is the principal supplier of natural gas to Europe and all petroleum products to Germany. Now it has curtailed normal flows.

Berlin is already under serious pressure after Russia cut flows through Nord Stream 1, the key connector with Europe, which is currently running at just 20 per cent capacity.

The spot price of Brent crude oil averaged $71 per barrel (b) in 2021, and we forecast the Brent price will average $104/b in 2022 and $94/b in 2023.

Benchmark German power for next year rose as much as 4.5% to a record 446 euros a megawatt-hour on the European Energy Exchange.

Under the government’s latest “reasonable worst-case scenario,” Britain could face an electricity capacity shortfall totaling about a sixth of peak demand, even after emergency coal plants have been fired up, according to people familiar with the government’s planning.

Работа над формированием общих энергорынков электроэнергии, нефти и нефтепродуктов, а также природного газа стран ЕЭАС проводится в рамках Договора о Евразийском экономическом союзе от 29 мая 2014 года.

For the first five months of 2022, solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources provided 25.7% of U.S. electricity – more than either coal or nuclear power and up from 22.9% a year earlier.

The transition to a renewable plus storage grid would require replacement of baseload coal generation and perhaps nuclear generation as well.

"В сегодняшних политико-экономических реалиях, несмотря на отличия в энергетических политиках стран, нас сближает главное – обеспечение безопасности стран Содружества, необходимость обеспечения надёжного, доступного энергоснабжения потребителей, защита экономики и населения стран от угроз в области энергетики"

«Наша задача, и это является одним из направлений государственной политики в электроэнергетике, обеспечивать надёжность функционирования, достаточность инвестиций, направляемых в развитие электросетевого комплекса, и технологическую независимость», - сказал замглавы Минэнерго России.

The spot price of Brent crude oil averaged $71 per barrel (b) in 2021, and we forecast the Brent price will average $104/b in 2022 and $94/b in 2023.

Perhaps the biggest issue is that the increased use of tech has made it far easier to scam people using utilities.
