BrusselsThis Friday, the possibility of applying a cap on the price of electricity paid by Spanish citizens is closer. After almost ten hours of intense and complex meeting, the leaders of the European Union will allow governments such as the Spanish or the Portuguese to request urgent measures to lower the electricity bill, including limiting the price of the light. The argument of Spain and Portugal is that the Iberian Peninsula is an energy island, with a lack of interconnections that causes them a comparative grievance. And what the two governments have scratched afterwards is the recognition of this “Iberian singularity” in allowing them to take extraordinary measures.
