light of rising costs the economy. the city's chief political correspondent with a crane is here for us at oak elementary steelers sick but gabrielle is known as germany's simple minister because he hopes people will use the energy and the economy as the prism of a tooth. those two go hand in hand that was he before we sit in in any way. well certainly he did not come out of bed this evening's energy summit as it was being built looking all that super in fact to a t u and wound up somewhere in the middle squeeze between consumers to at the moment there is the largest share of the twenty billion euro a year costs for this switch away from fossil fuels and nuclear to real post. we have very large subsidies for renewal polls here in germany and consumers are bearing a large share of the burden because energy intensive
5:53 pm
industry at the moment is exempt from the surchar f those renewable ssidies to mr gabriele he wando both reduce the subsidies and also spread the burden of the surcharge more evenly he was asking for a rollback on those exemptions for energy intensive industry and the taste a whole lot of opposition with industry saying look if we do that we're going to lose their international competitiveness so when me and doubt that it is a compromise he will get a bit of reduction on the subsidies a bit more burden sharing by industry but in the end we will surely seek energy prices here continue to rise. miller the summit was called in the spa because regional politicians but threatened to blow me just a douy as performs why. that's right well the rollback on the subsidies would have a very strong effect on the northern region of germany task for most of theind power is coming from lots of windmills there and it states in the north have benefited from the switch
