the comments section shows many signs of oil industry dirty tricks, but some of them are worth thinking about.
Be suspicious of anyone who blames renewable energy as the reason energy prices are high. It’s because of gas prices. Energy prices mostly in the west is determined by gas prices. Poor policy has made it worse. Simple tweaks to the energy market will make massive differences to energy prices. Regional prices will make massive difference. Paying renewable energy assets to turn off in times of excess capacity is also another bad idea. If they were not paid for turning it off, they could either generate hydrogen or make efuels when these happen. Creating real value for economies across Europe.
