Autumn is here again and has brought the question of whether the electricity prices are expected to rise. While colder weather generally means higher consumption and more expensive prices, predicting the actual is difficult. It is therefore good to know what preventive measures can help to keep costs down, even if electricity prices were to rise.
This summer, there has been much discussion in the media and among technology enthusiasts on social media regarding the profitability of solar panels. On the one hand, some claim that panels are not cost-effective, especially when electricity prices are occasionally negative, forcing producers to pay when selling energy back to the grid. On the other hand, electricity prices on the exchange were high during the summer due to a lack of wind, the Estlink-2 cable being under maintenance, and occasional shutdowns of neighbouring countries’ production units.
The green turn, environmentally friendly thinking and sustainable energy solutions are topics that become more and more timely every year. Everyone’s habits have an impact on creating a cleaner future, and green energy is one of the easiest ways to take the first step on this journey.
Electricity is an integral part of our lives – we need it whether we’re at work, walking down the street or doing domestic chores.
