2022: Rise in electricity prices due to pressure on Russia
A colossal rise in electricity prices in the EU could "kill the economy," Slovak Prime Minister Eduard Heger said in an interview with the Financial Times at the end of September 2022. He demanded that Brussels allocate €5 billion from unused regional funds to Slovakia in order to reduce energy bills for business. "Otherwise, [Slovak enterprises] will close and can destroy the whole economy," the politician says. According to him, the increased electricity bills have brought Slovakia to the brink of "collapse."
Heger warned that in the absence of support from Brussels, the government would be forced to nationalise the electricity system. According to the Financial Times, at the beginning of the year, the Slovak authorities decided to sell excess capacity, which are now forced to buy back at inflated prices. "Slovaks buy for €500 what they sold for €100," the head of the Cabinet explained.
