During a press conference this Thursday in Matignon, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne announced three new measures to help businesses and communities cope with rising energy prices. “nearly 12 billion“Euros of aid will be released to support them.
The first, called “electricity damper“, will aim to cover part of the electricity bill for “VSEs that do not benefit from the tariff shield, SMEs, associations, local authorities and public establishments“. The government will also “simplify and amplify the targeted aid, already in force for companies“. With regard to local authorities, he will present an amendment to the finance bill providing for “the extension and amplification of the safety net for the year 2023“.
