The high inflation and the situation on the electricity market are putting pressure on both private individuals and companies.
At 11 o'clock, Elisabeth Svantesson and Ebba Busch will hold a press conference, which will be about relief for companies in the form of deferrals with tax payments.
As recently as last week, the Minister of Energy and Industry held a press conference where she announced that the government cannot proceed with the proposed electricity subsidy to the companies, as it violates the EU's state aid rules.
Instead, the government announced that it is again giving Svenska kraftnät the task of applying to the Energy Market Inspection to be allowed to pay general support to entrepreneurs.
The application must have been received by January 4, 2023 at the latest, after which the Energy Market Inspectorate must carry out an independent examination.
