“Electricity Crisis”: German Wholesale Prices “Virtually Exploding”…2,347% Rise Over Single Year!

Here’s more on the Great Energy Debacle, which is brought to you by the green energy masterminds who followed “the science”.

Europeans, especially Germans, are already fearing massive natural gas supply shortages this coming winter, but experts are warning an electricity crisis could hit first.

The “Handelsblatt”, Germany’s business and finance daily, reports on the country’s exploding electricity prices in its online article: “Over 2000 percent: electricity prices jump to record highs“.

And the bad news: things are expected to get worse – a lot worse!

The megawatt price of electricity in daily trading on the Leipzig EEX exchange “jumped to a new high” last week, according to the Handelsblatt. “A megawatt hour (MWh) now costs 563 euros. A year ago, the price was just under 23 euros – an increase of more than 2,347 percent.”

Oh boy. Natural Gas hits $10. The fuel for America's factories and farms skyrockets.
For context, Nat Gas was at $2.50 when Biden took office.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Germany has plenty of coal.
Bring back the "gaswerken" of old, converting coal into natural gas...

Instead, they have vast fields of solar panels and windmills to despoil the landscape.  *****rollingeyes*****
