The increasing demand for energy, the stagnating supply and the lack of integration of Switzerland into the electricity market policy of the EU present us with new challenges. The fact that Russia uses its energy supplies as a weapon further aggravates the supply situation. What can be said about this from an economic point of view? And what should be done to secure the energy supply more efficiently? In this podcast, the NZZ chief economist Peter A. Fischer discusses this with the Avenir Suisse expert Patrick Dümmler and the chief economist at Deloitte Switzerland, Michael Grampp.
