Russians are in it for an ugly ride because they are at war. So do we, even if it is
an indirect war.
I don't expect most people to be able to afford energy next year in Spain. I have been
talking to people who do industrial contracts and it is getting nuts. It has reached a
point in which you may want to open a carrot processing plant and the power company
denies you a power contract because they don't have electric power to sell to you.
Read again. It is not that there is power which is getting expensive. It is that the
electric power company no longer has the capabilities to sign a contract with you and
guarantee a supply for you.
