Start gas and electricity price brakes – that will change in March

The reduction in energy costs has been discussed for a long time. Now they are there. But other changes in rules and laws will also come to consumers in March. The gas, heat and electricity price brake will start in March 2023 and will retroactively cover the months of January and February. The federal government wants to save citizens in the areas of higher living costs and caps electricity and gas prices. There will also be relief for students and technical students in the new month. WELT has summarized that and what else is changing for consumers in an overview.
