Controversial electricity producer: "How much is your electricity bill?" – "I won't tell you" – an unusual conversation with RWE boss Markus Krebber

Mr Krebber, how much money will you get back from the electricity price brake? Nothing.

Not a cent? My electricity tariff is less than 40 cents per kilowatt hour. So I get nothing.

Then you are like millions. Who get nothing because the electricity was not as expensive as feared. Could the electricity price brake have been avoided? One could not foresee the price development. And there are many households whose tariffs are now above the level of the price brake. Which are now being relieved, which is also right.

What’s next for the electricity price? If it falls even more, will it rise again? It depends on the geopolitical situation. I believe we have reached a new normal level with the current prices.
