If we have the regasification ship and we can’t use it, it will be suicide. There is a nimby problem, (protests from a local community, ed), and someone will have to take responsibility. I was clear: the ship will stay there for 3 years, then we will move it to a non-invasive site “, he later clarified. Cingolani.

And just “on the quiet winter”, Cingolani he explains: “We have secured the country, we should have a quiet winter season. The storages are full. We will have price problems, but if 20 October ends well on the price cap, we will have solved the situation. Unfortunately, we will not take away the suffering from families and businesses “.
“The price cap“, Explains the minister,” will take the form of an interval within which the TTf market it will vary without absurd peaks. And in Europe I believe that we can reach a conclusion, a compromise, which can limit costs ”.
“We had proposed the price cap months ago. There European Commission it was slow, then it accelerated. We also hope that the war will end ”, he concludes Cingolani.
