Good Morning from Germany, where year-ahead wholesale power prices – a key driver of household electricity bills – have climbed to almost €138/MWh, the highest in 3yrs. Expensive gas sets the marginal price under the merit-order system, handing cheaper generators fat windfall profits. The EU is now considering a windfall tax to claw back some of those gains and cushion the blow to consumers. https://t.co/XLfz9nugRT
