While raising concerns about climate change, the warmest January in decades it saves money for families, while fighting against the cost of living, as well as avoiding the risk of an energy crisis. This is what emerges from an analysis by Bloomberg, according to which mild conditions will persist across Europe until the end of the month. The national gas reserves, therefore, barring any polar cold or disastrous worsening of the war in Ukraine, should be enough to get through the winter. Natural gas on the reference market, that of Amsterdam, opens during the day below the threshold 65 euros per megawatt hour.
So there is optimism and, after the collapse of 19% of the electricity bill in the first quarter of 2023, according to the president of Nomisma Energia David Tabarelli“We could have a 30% drop in the gas tariff of January. We can be optimistic in the coming months, because there are good signs – continues Tabarelli -. Prices are falling as there is more supply and demand slows down. It will take a few years to return to the prices of the past. There are bottlenecks in the import capacity, so we have to do the right away Ravenna regasification terminal – concludes the president of Nomisma -, if not make three or four”.
