This week's highlights, as of 4 September
The main point
The Defence Council in France was held in secret. Nothing leaked. All we know is that there is nothing to worry about, that the government is there. Yet several public bodies have been sounding the alarm for several months, indicating that the situation is serious. Despite the government's silence, gas and electricity prices are rising, indicating a deteriorating situation. The situation is deteriorating, with price rises becoming more widespread, inflation at its highest level in decades and interest rates rising. This leads to a very likely recession without even rationing of gas and electricity supplies. This affects all French people, all Europeans, all because of the clumsy sanctions taken by the European Commission which is now silent. The damage is done and well done!
1st important point: the Energy Regulatory Commission had to revise the specifications of the tenders to adapt to the increases in costs and prices
Updating of the specifications of the 17 French calls for tenders
2nd secondary point: The rise in energy prices is not only bad: the sale of wind-generated electricity on the market means that the State does not have to buy this energy and that savings are made.Hence the contribution of renewable energies in 2022, which will be reflected in the 2023 budget.
For the first time, renewable energies will contribute to the state budget in 2023
