The war in Ukraine has caused energy prices in Germany to skyrocket. While winter is now behind us, many are already looking forward to the next one with concern. Then the situation for Germany could become precarious again. But now there is the all-clear.

Germany has enough gas for the coming winter

In the last few weeks of winter, it was said again and again that Germany was getting through the cold season well. However, the next cold spell should be another big challenge. A gas shortage threatened. According to leading experts, this will not happen (Source: Reuters).

According to the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW), the future prospects are so good that Germany should stop the conversion from floating to fixed LNG terminals. The floating LNG terminals, which are already in use and will be built in combination with the LNG terminals in Belgium and the Netherlands ensure a reliable gas supply.

Nevertheless, the Federal Network Agency warns again and again that people and industry must continue to save gas. The relatively mild winters and also the major austerity measures by citizens, but also by companies have ensured that the gas storage tanks are well filled and that there is no gas shortage. In a tweet, the head of the Federal Network Agency praised the population and companies:

Despite the difficult situation and dependence on Russian gas, Germany got off lightly because the right political decisions were made and people really saved energy.
