– The violent rise in electricity prices now shows the limitations in how the electricity market is designed, said von der Leyen during a strategic forum in the Slovenian city of Bled today. – It was developed for other circumstances. That is why we are now working on a crisis intervention and a structural reform of the electricity market, says the head of the European Commission. The European Commission is planning an emergency reform of the electricity market in order to curb the violent price increase, says the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.
