Heh, author of this should try living in south Sweden that allows Germany to suck them dry when the wind turbines stand still over there.

Quote: Summary of Thursday’s Electricity Prices:

Electricity areas 3 & 4 (Southern Sweden): SEK 2.5-3.6 average price per kWh, peak at SEK 8.

Electricity areas 1 & 2 (Northern Sweden): 17 öre and 9 öre per kWh, respectively.

Denmark is trying to do to Norway what Germany has done do the Swedish in that respect. I fully understand that the Norwegians want to cut the cable to the south.

Sounds like Germany and its people are getting greener and cheaper electricity

I call German and Danish windmills bordering on greenwashing.

For any energy to be truly green, it must also be pragmatic. It's not green energy if it's so expensive ordinary households cannot afford to use it.

Id like to see you rejoice if your electricity bill went from 0.4kr to 8kr per kwH because your neightbour countries' "awesome green energy supply" fails to support its citizens needs.

This is not a constant occurrence fortunately but happens enough to anger the Swedish and Norwegian authorities.

They are already quadrupling the electricity cost with a myriad of taxes ( green, state, maintenance, municipality, what have you ) so this price hike due to failed windmills and lack of daylight at the neighbours' makes them look incompetent.

Sweden and Norway does not want to lower the taxes to leverage energy bills for the average tax payer because Germany and Denmark cannot get ther sh!t together, that's for sure.
