Laurianne Altwegg, vice-president of the Federal Electricity Commission (ElCom), explains that the tariffs announced are high, in particular because they take into account the moment when the energy was purchased. Moment that includes among others the second quarter of last year when prices were still very high.

According to Christian Petit, director of Romande Energie, energy prices should stabilize or even fall a little in the years to come. It is the prices of the infrastructure for the transmission of electricity that will tend to rise.

Currently, there have been no policy measures to try to mitigate the costs. Antoinette Weck, PLR MP (FR), believes that one could imagine a tax deduction for electricity costs. On his side, Simon ZurichPS MP (FR), puts forward the idea of ​​introducing an “electricity check” to directly support households.
