Gas price brake

Share:

Luana enables 100% gas price braking thanks to FEMO®.  What exactly does that mean? The German government has put together extensive relief packages. Together they comprise almost 300 billion euros. The aim: to support citizens during this period, curb energy costs, and safe jobs. The gas price brake applies from March 1, 2023 (retroactive to January 1, 2023) and states that you will receive 80% of your gas consumption* at the capped price of 12 cents per kilowatt hour for gas and 9.5 cents per kilowatt hour for district heating. For more information, visit the federal government’s website. But what about the remaining 20%? You can close this gap and compensate it with the help of our so called FEMO® box with AI-controlled monitoring.

*As a rule, the consumption quantity of the previous year is decisive.

The problem

80% gas price brake 

What does the gas price brake mean for you? Only 80% of the previous year‘s consumption is capped by the German gas price brake. The remaining 20% must be procured at current market conditions. Since the procurement of long-term gas supply contracts is hardly possible at present, the remaining quantity usually falls into the so-called substitute supply. Energy experts expect another 20% increase in the gas price for substitute supply at the beginning of 2023. 

The solution

Compensation with FEMO®

Older heating systems are usually inefficient and cannot be controlled according to demand. By using smart control technology such as our FEMO® box (remote control and monitoring box), approx. 20% to 30% of the energy used in properties can be reduced, which in fact means that exactly the uncapped share of the gas demand is compensated.
