Overview from decision makers: when is it worth fixing the electricity price?

A simple model for companies is to fix the price of electricity at half the volume, says Jaanus Uiga, Undersecretary for Energy and Mineral Resources of the Climate Ministry. According to the big consumer, it is worth fixing the price five years in advance, or “in blocks”.

However, if we had been so smart and had known the war in Ukraine and the energy crisis in advance, we would have fixed the price 100%, says Siiri Lahe, a member of the board of the production company Estonian Cell, which has repeatedly stopped production due to the high electricity exchange price.

In the program, we also ask how high the stock market price of electricity threatens to rise in the coming winter season, what is the state’s plan for regulating the price of electricity and security of supply, and how the high price of electricity affects companies. The show is hosted by Lauri Leet.
