Prețurile gazelor explodează în Europa înainte de iarnă. Rezervele sunt la un nivel îngrijorător de scăzut

Natural gas prices in Europe have surged to over 65 euros per megawatt-hour, the highest since March, amid low storage levels and rising demand due to extreme heat. Supply issues, including closures in Norway and drought affecting energy production, exacerbate the situation. Europe’s gas reserves are at a historic low of 57% as of early August, raising concerns for the winter season. The increase in gas prices could also impact inflation and monetary policy in the Eurozone, with potential inflation rates reaching 3.5% if high prices persist.
