15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary sitting
Supports large investments in the electricity grid (up to €1 billion needed), while acknowledging that network tariffs cannot remain static, even as there is a desire to simultaneously lower electricity prices. Consideration is being given to listing the grid company on the stock exchange to raise additional funds, and emphasis is placed on the potential for cost reduction through the cross-utilization of infrastructure. Concern is expressed that the investment gap is too large to be covered solely by current network tariffs.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
Economic positions emphasize fairness and proportionality in land valuation, contrasting with the practice where the state utilizes national defense zoning plans to artificially inflate the land's value before selling it at auction. The objective is to prevent private entities from purchasing development rights that have been created under the national defense zoning plan.
