The European Commission is preparing a package of extraordinary measures to address rising fuel and fertiliser prices, among other products. To mitigate the consequences of the war in the Middle East, Brussels has sent a preliminary proposal to member states. It outlines support measures for companies operating primarily in the agriculture, fisheries, road transport, and maritime transport sectors. These are economic areas with high energy consumption. If approved, the proposal would allow states to cover part of the increase in fuel and fertiliser costs. Additional measures to increase support for electricity prices are also included. At the same time, the European Commission (EC) is opening the door to measures such as subsidies for the purchase of natural gas used to produce electricity, subject to case-by-case analysis. It is worth noting that during the 2022-2023 energy crisis, the EC warned the Eurogroup against measures it considered too broad and indiscriminate. Consequently, one of the focuses this time is to keep support measures short-term and cost-controlled for taxpayers. The EU is assessing the risk of supply disruption and rising oil prices via videoconference.
