On Wednesday morning, Energy and Industry Minister Ebba Busch (KD) presented an update on the electricity situation in Sweden and a picture of the situation regarding the announced electricity price support for households in southern Sweden.
The message to the companies was that they have to wait - again - even though she is aware that many companies without an electricity subsidy risk bankruptcy.
- That there are risks of bankruptcy, yes.
That is why this is the most prioritized issue, she says in tonight's 30 Minutes.
Bakers and other business owners must wait for notification
What is your advice to a baker in southern Sweden today and ahead of the coming winter and the high electricity prices to come, asks host Anders Holmberg.
- Waiting for information about when exactly the money can arrive, answers Ebba Busch.
She also adds that you can start from the model the government presented a few weeks ago.
The support is based on the amount of electricity consumed and the level is set as the difference between a set reference price of 75 öre/KWh and the actual average monthly prices in each electricity area during the period October 2021 to September 2022.
