The speaker supports the environmental requirements (SAF) but emphasizes that their economic impact on standard tickets is marginal (1–2 euros), contrasting with catastrophic assessments. They prefer a precise, data-driven approach to assessing the costs of regulations to avoid sowing economic fear.

The policy supports regulatory clarity and stability to enhance the investment climate, particularly within the energy sector. It favors fees—specifically fixed connection charges and underutilization fees—that incentivize investment in essential capacity while penalizing inefficiency. Furthermore, it refutes allegations of a significant burden on the populace and affirms that the economy has been on an upward trajectory since mid-2024.

Economic perspectives emphasize that the electricity market is regulated, not a free market, which is why non-market measures are necessary to ensure investment certainty. There is support for shifting from direct subsidies to investment measures that would generate revenue for the state. The development of renewable energy is considered beneficial because it adds cheap generation capacity and helps to bring down the average electricity price.
