The Basque Government appreciates the inclusion of the decalogue of lehendakari in measures against the energy crisis
The Basque Government believes that the reduction of the electricity bill will help families and the Basque industry, but it lacks specific measures for industrial companies that have suffered a double, tariff and energy shock over the past year.

The Basque Governmentwelcomes the inclusion of the decalogue of urgent measures oflehendakari Imanol Pradales in the measures announced this Friday by theSpanish Governmentto alleviatetheconsequences of the conflict in the Near East .
In particular, Pradales sent Sanchez last week a series of proposals with the aim of reducing the electricity billby families and the Basque industry , after hearingtherepresentatives of the Basque industry at the meeting oftheDefence Group of Industry , at which the industry unanimously called for the urgent adoption of measures to reduce the electricity bill .
The paradox is that the Basque industry pays a higher electricity bill than its competitors in France and Germany, even though the cost of producing this electricity is lower. "This is due to the distortions and extra costs that several Spanish governments have added to the electricity bill over the last five years, "the Basque Government said in a statement.
Mikel Jauregi Industria, Energy Transition and Sustainability Adviser, has stated that "we in the Government have been denouncing for months that our industry pays a higher electricity bill than France and Germany when the cost of energy is lower, so we called for the extra costs to be reduced or reduced to the electricity bill. "
To this end, measures have been taken, such as the reduction of electricity VAT to 10%, the suspension of the tax on electricity generation to 7%, the reduction of the special tax on electricity to 0.5% and an 80% bonus in electric tolls for the electrointensive industry.
The Government misses the increased support for the companies that have suffered thedouble shock (the tariff crisis first and now energy) over the past year, and will consider other measures announced by the Spanish Government, such as support for photovoltaic self-consumption and fiscal measures, heat pumps and electric vehicle recharge points, all of which are already in force in the Basque Country.
In any case, he believes that they will bring "significant savings" to the Basque electric industry, as well as to the Basque steel sector, due to the tariff effects imposed by Trump.
