(ANSA) - ROME, JANUARY 28 - With the Italian energy mix based mainly on imported gas, 95% of that consumed, "we could be damaged in the event of a global gas supplier crisis. We are monitoring the geopolitical situation, but it is one thing fast moving, minute by minute, it's hard to say what's going to happen tomorrow. We have emergency plans of course, but hopefully they won't be needed. "
This was said by the Minister of Energy Transition, RobertoCingolani.
"I think at the European level we need to discuss municipalities and other measures to mitigate the global cost of gas - he continued - and of course I think we need to reanalyze the way in which electricity prices have been formed so far.
I don't think that electricity should be linked to the cost of gas anymore.
Perhaps in the past it was useful to accelerate renewables, it is no longer so. "Cingolani explained that" about 800 billion cubic meters of methane in the next decade will be delivered to the East of the planet for the exit from coal, and this will make the situation even more complex for gas ".
