S. Petsas: In the coming weeks, the announcements about electricity

Stelios Petsas, Deputy Minister of Interior, spoke to SKAI about the national plan for the reduction of electricity, emphasizing that in the coming weeks, announcements will be made about electricity.

Mr. Petsas confirmed what the Prime Minister said that if Europe does not take measures for the increases in electricity, the government will do it.

It is recalled that Greece asked the Commission to take some measures in order to reduce energy prices and limit increases.

Specifically, he requested:

– Price ceiling at pre-crisis levels
-Daily price limit at +/- 10%
-Determination of prices in an emergency
– Ceiling in the wholesale profit
– Reinforcement with liquefied gas
In times like the one we live in now, due to war and pandemic, the government is the one that will intervene to normalize the situation, said Mr. Petsas.
“The government will continue to support households and businesses for as long as needed,” he said.

Regarding Tsipras’s statements, he commented that “micro-politics must leave the table in such difficult times”.
