據(jù)油價網(wǎng)11月21日消息稱，在切斷對德國最大能源公司Uniper的天然氣供應(yīng)后，該公司面臨約530億美元(510億歐元)的國有化額外成本。此前，一項旨在幫助德國天然氣進口商承擔額外成本的天然氣稅被取消，德國政府現(xiàn)在需要向Uniper注入至多250億歐元(258億美元)的額外股本，以彌補損失。

早在9月份，德國政府就宣布將放棄對消費者征收天然氣稅的計劃，轉(zhuǎn)而引入天然氣價格上限，以遏制飆升的能源賬單。德國總理朔爾茨制定了2000億歐元(1940億美元)的“防御盾牌”，以保護企業(yè)和消費者免受能源價格飆升的影響。

“德國政府將盡其所能壓低(能源)價格。我們現(xiàn)在撐起了一個巨大的防御傘。我們將投入2000億歐元。”朔爾茨在柏林的一場新聞發(fā)布會上說。

根據(jù)新計劃，德國政府將對天然氣和電力價格實施緊急價格剎車，并取消此前計劃向消費者征收的天然氣稅，以避免價格進一步上漲。天然氣稅原定于周六生效，一直持續(xù)到2024年4月，目的是幫助公用事業(yè)公司支付更換天然氣供應(yīng)的成本。政府還暫停了今年新增債務(wù)占國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值 0.35%的上限。

Uniper’s Bailout Costs Jump To $53 Billion After Russian Gas Supply Cuts

Germany’s largest energy company Uniper is facing some $53 billion (51B euros) in extra costs for nationalization after being cut gas supplies to the struggling company. This comes after the cancellation of a gas levy designed to help German gas importers bear additional costs, with Berlin now needing to pump as much as 25 billion euros ($25.8 billion) of additional equity into Uniper to cover losses.

Back in September, the German government announced that it would ditch earlier plans for a gas levy on consumers and instead would introduce a gas price cap to curb soaring energy bills, with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz setting out a 200 billion euros ($194 billion) “defensive shield” to protect companies and consumers against the impact of soaring energy prices.

"The German government will do everything in its power to bring [energy] prices down. We are now putting up a large defensive umbrella ... which we will endow with 200 billion euros,"

Under the new plan, Berlin will introduce an emergency price brake on gas and electricity prices and also scrap a previously planned gas levy on consumers to avoid any further price increases. The gas levy, which was slated to come into effect from Saturday and remain in place until April 2024, was intended to help utilities cover the cost of replacing supply. The government has also suspended its limit on new debt of 0.35% of gross domestic product this year.
