Don't worry they also thought about this, the EU wanted price caps on nuclear because EDF was supposed to make way too much money from the gas crisis & general winter consumption.
The electricity "market" in the EU means supporting the Energiewende, no matter how bad it's failing.
- ExoticPearTree 3y agoAh yes, the price cap nonsense that EU thinks will fix problems. Sometimes I wonder if the current politicians in Brussels ever attended basic economy classes. Because they don't seem to understand that they can't control the markets.
