- European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen laid out plans to combat the energy crisis and the ongoing response to Russia in her annual State of the European Union speech on Wednesday.
Von der Leyen announced a cap on the revenues of electricity production companies and a crisis contribution from fossil fuel producers. She said the measures will raise an additional €140 billion (140 billion USD).
The EU chief criticized past subsidies for fossil fuels, and called for greater investment in renewable energy. To this end, she announced an additional €3 billion euros to help build a future hydrogen market.
She said it was crucial that the EU rid itself of the dependency on Russian oil and gas. Since the Russian invasion, imports of Russian now make up just 9% of EU imports, down from a previous 40%.
Amid praise for the EU's rapid response to the Ukraine crisis, von der Leyen furthermore stressed that the EU's support for Ukraine will remain "unshakeable".

“Putin will fail” I heard it since 2005
i have a feeling this will just turn things worse.
EU,s central planning for energy is what lead us to this place to begin with.
No S..t , open yr eyes great à grip and grow up.
The pain will lead to the death of putler, worth it. If you think this isn't an everyone problem, you are wrong
and for maintain rich countries rich and...... the same result
Why not cap on huge profits for selling weapons or any goods?
They are blind about important issues.
There should not be caps on ANY industry. That is just Socialism. That is what we are supposed to be fighting.
Energy companies announce a revenue cap on how much politicians can make.
Might be a problem for Orban
I guess Ukraine was Russias suez crisis, the last attempt at holding on to a dying empire
Loooool
Russian Empire ended in 1917. You’re so intelligent, aren’t you. 😆
@@alexstorm2749 He is referring to Britain and the Suez canal crisis and drawing a comparison between the Russia and Ukraine war currently being fought. He may or may not be right about the Suez canal, but the Russian empire only really changed hands and became the USSR. It expanded after WW2 then fell in the 90s. The 90s was characterised by a capitalist economic system that indentured undeveloped Nations and some of the former USSR states covertly. Putin is a Recidivist. His imperal empire building has been premised on puppet governments and Kleptocracy. Until Ukraine had its revolution of dignity and expelled Russia corruption and exposed its hegemonic pseudo empire for what it is. This war was initially Putin trying to regain control and subvert the government of Ukraine and its citizenry. To bring them back into the fold so to speak. But they said No and chose Democracy. And now we see exactly what is going on. Control of the Ukrainian export and logistics industry would have handed him power over parts of Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. So yes, he is right in that regard.
@@alexstorm2749 Russia is still an imperialist power just like the US or China, a country doesn't need to have an actual Emperor just to be called an Empire, as long as they control land that's beyond their own country and practice imperialism of some kind
@@danielleisabellabanyard9968
Barack Obama said the exact same thing in 2014, or to be more precise “Russian economy has been torn to shreds”. And… truthfully Russia has never felt better than after 2014. BTW, endless sanctions (since 2014) made Russia one of the TOP exporters of food and revived Russian agricultural industry. Sanctions only made Russia stronger and MUCH MORE self-sufficient and self-reliant. Plus, brought Russia and China (world’s 2nd economy) MUCH closer together.
Ursula von der Leyen wears the colors of Ukraine
Ursula crazy Leyen should work as a gynaecologist.
Unfortunately that eu policy maker never earned her merit to be in that position, she was put there by a drunken man, behind the doors of a building there in Brussels, the inept policy makers in the tiny eu mafia institution should ask hostile America for independence, before we go down to the gutter with them, the problem is also that those inept policy makers did not ask the average Europeans from our own perspective countries if we wanted to sanction Russian resources, because tiny insignificant eu has no resources, that's right, zero resources, nothing, caput, Russia our neighbor and trusted business partner has been helping us to build Europe, hostile America is far far away and not our neighbor, America's plan is to destroy all European countries, using us like their slaves/proxy's to attack Russia and eventually China, because America is jealous and has evil envy for Russia and China, America is not interested in eu because they know we are insignificant.
Stop the nonsense and be a man!!!
What Europe is asking from each citizen is nothing compared to what we endured in WWI and II. If you can’t restrict yourself slightly for a while or longer to help out those who are so viciously attacked then you do not belong to democratic and free societies .
Your silver spoon won’t leave your mouth and you should be talking with such full mouth .
Of course I will be pro Russia, a peaceful nation like Russia that desires peace and prosperity for the rest of the world, Russia a nation that has bravely taken the world into multilateralism, hostile America dictated to every country their own rules based on their own interests, hostile America cheating, stealing, conniving in order to look after their own selfish interest. Hostile America has the opportunity to repent and join the countries of peace and prosperity for all, equally respect for sovereignty of all countries in the world.
How do eu put a cap on Russia energy when Russia stop selling energy to eu. Lol

Ursula von der Leyen didn't announce any plans to increase the mount of renewable energy being generated.
She also didn't announce any plans to get people to change the type of energy they rely on, for example if people heat the homes with gas and cook with gas, then they would need to change the boiler and the cooker, for an electric one, but Ursula von der Leyen didn't announce any plans to help people make that change.
And most people in Europe rent their home from a landlord. The landlord decides the heating system and the tenant just has to pay the bills. You need to incentivize the landlords to install alternative heating that is not gas as well as cooker that are not gas.
Install solar heater will be ok

I think a mixture of both. They're definitely imbeciles, but they truly believe they're smart people.
We did not forget what you have done in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Libya. Ukraine is an instrument of USA, not Europe. You Europeans must have your own stance. If you throw a pine cone to a Bear, it will eventually attack. And so did Russia.
👍
Status quo. Put yourself in the energy company's shoes. If revenue is capped, what's the incentive for producing more? You"d just scale down your production to maintain year-on-year financials. Result: energy shortage.
Exactly!
We face a tough winter, but we will prevail in the face of this tyrant.

Dumb idea on introducing 'profit caps'. That will only lead to shortages. Would you produce more if your returns would be less? Does anybody work overtime for even the same normal hourly pay? Incentives are human-based and companies are run and invested in by humans. This is just a legalized means of theft. Although highly inefficient, it would be better to provide direct cash subsidies to those who can least afford the higher prices.
If Austria is able to print a finite unit of currencies towards a stimulus planning, then the rest of the trading countries are allowed to print the same amount.

If Any energy solving should not involve Russia. Y keep saying Russia?? Energy is EU's problem not Russia's .any mentioning of Russia is not problem solving. More likely blaming
It's because Russia is the cheapest energy source. All other alternatives will make the higher energy orices observed today, permanent. Dont forget pipeline gas is cheaper and faster to transport than LNG.
Great lady. Strong, intelligent and fighting against the evil dictatorship in Russia. Democracy and freedom.
This could become the first time in her life that she is not perceived as more or less useless.
Intelligent? Isn’t this the lady that laughed at Trump when he told the Germans that relying on Russian gas was going to haunt them when he decides to shut off gas flow? This could have all been avoided.

Capping price of EU energy company is not a good idea at all. It is all the profits they will make are an important economic signal that will help the energy transition.
Higher energy cost signal what need to be developed and signal the consumer what resource need to preserve.
Capping price of energy will therefore lead to long term energy shortage...

@@anteeko as one example gas prices in Australia [outside WA who is smart and has an adgsm] have gone from 50~/mwh to 1100~/ mwh at times on the open market. Do the maths my uninformed friend. And Australia is one of the world's biggest producers, with one of the world's least sovereign protectionist governments who won't protect domestic supply for ourselves unlike every other nation in the world. Europe's price rises are worse, if anything. Cost inputs are essentially increased 5-10%, so it's reasonable to say 3000%.

Okay. What are you doing in this regard?
@@MetalheadAndNerd I would make an energy plan involving all EU countries and solve the gas shortages in the short term with a recovery fund aimed to invest in biogas and regasification plant and promote investments on nuclear and renewables to fix the crisis in the long term by also cutting bureaucratic time on all EU member States to quicken the construction of such plants.

But I had to admit sometimes if I listen to some UK politicians it sounds sometime like they would prefer to lift the UKs anchor and sail the entire island to another continent 😉 🇬🇧🇺🇦🇪🇺✌
@@derwolfpack3599 The current situation is de-industrializing Europe, the financial capital of the European Union goes to the United States, the industrial capital of the European Union goes to China, and then a large number of Europeans are unemployed, and Europe will only have tourism, multiculturalism, democracy and freedom.

I thing europian union is some king of a hierarchy system that want to leave hierarchy of states or rich people, whwre they are. like wester countries and ritcher people ( when we join, i am from czech republic) they promised us we will be equal. And now what we can see. people from easter coutres have payment 2 time lower and less. and western coutries have almost tje same payment for food and electrity and more. ( in the begining the EU in easternt countries gived the money almost to the rich people. So i hope that EU will start to thing, to what they can do for casual people. and maybe repair fails from their past. OR fom my opinion it can be discdhartet. and of cource. people shoud vote fo their representativevs to EU. like realy vote
This is dumbest solution. Just delink electricity pricing with gas and stop trading of electricity and gas in EU market. The profits are mainly due to buying at the contract price and selling at spot market price. There is no real supply issue yet but prices increase based on market speculation. Sweden uses almost zero gas in electricity production and yet they need to pay Nordpool price that is based on gas spot prices. This is just illogical and politicians need to understand basics before coming up with some short term fix that increases suffering in the long term.
words don't cook rice
Then we cook noodles.
@@susannehartl3067 Burn your forest for cook noodles. We aren't blind anymore.
Western European: Our GDP is higher than yours, that means whatever we do beats whatever you do. So we always win. That's how the comparison math works, right?
Russian: *cuts off gas*
Western European: It's OK. Economics 101 says that where there's demand, supply will magically appear and since our GDP is high, we will outbid any other losers in the market.
Winter cometh
Western European: *freezes to death, refusing to drop the smug ubermensch face till the very end*
You do know people lived in Europe prior to the invention of gas heating. Reading that comment makes me think you are a head injury victim of a car crash where your LADA has no European technology like modern airbags. 🤣
@@MrWhitmen1981 Before that, they lived a medieval life at drastically lower population levels. If that's worth their smug pride, then think of the smooth transition to that. The point is: America, China, Russia, Canada, Australia, Brazil have resources, so they matter. Europe and Japan don't have any, so they don't matter.
@@MrWhitmen1981 It will all depends if EU population are submissive midgets or real men. Submissive midget will brownose anything EU says.
The biggest hipocrites
Let's SCRAP gas and bring in EVERYTHING electric 💡 heating cooking lighting cars etc it's THAT time NOW
How will you produce the electricity? They've tried that is the US's largest state, California. There wasn't enough energy to furnish the sufficient electricity to even charge the electric vehicles. It was a failure.
West has creacted misery for many developing nations,same misery will come upon on the western countries and people of developing nations will have their rights
Do whatever suits you but for God sake don't ask Asian and African nation to do the same.....remember we are not western countries...we are not same..we have different foreign policy....in short we don't hate Russian
russia has nothing to offer to african countries, never did, never helped any african country to develop before, russia has just Wagner for you, like in mali or African central republic.
neither did we until Tzar Putin overplayed his hand
With friends like Russia, who needs enemies?
Your friends say alot about what you're like as well.
"My friend is a murderer"
Time to rethink your friends then.
Europe has but the small part of Europe that is her eu organisation and Germany hasn't.
Why is not imposing sanction to Russian uranium ?
Because the EU needs it, they just want the rest of us to be quiet about it
The EU is, unsurprisingly, seeking additional power. The taxation of energy companies is a matter for EU members - not for the Commission.
It is 'Everybody's business in the name of Freedom against Autocratic USSR rule murder', to pull this issue together.
Give Ukraine more weapons so they can win faster and become the new energy suppplier to EU.
Its obvious EU is fighting what doesn't belong to them, and definitely EU will fail and Russia will stand.
@@christabelmanasseh867 Copium
Does Ukraine have gas and oil in large amounts?
You need to get your brain checked.
@@tomorrowneverdies567 maybe he means Russian gas, which Ukraine will be transporting through its territory after Russia is defeated.
