79% Informative
In February , Germany held an election that had many echoes of the one the U.S. held in November .
Voters were incensed with inflation, especially electricity prices, which surged 80 percent after Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 .
On Tuesday , Friedrich Merz of the Christian Democratic Union was sworn in as chancellor, leading a new conservative government in Berlin .
Germany 's new government says it wants to keep developing all renewable energy sources, but with an emphasis on compatibility with the grid.
Germany needs to invest 500 billion euros ( about $565 billion ) over the next two decades just to upgrade the power grid.
Renewables are cheap, but bills often don’t reflect that.
Germany ’s previous government promised to create a fund to help citizens manage these price increases.
But cut it for budget reasons, leaving the public with all stick and no carrot.
Bulgaria , Croatia , Italy , Denmark , and Poland have all expanded incentives to make homes more energy-efficient.
