Last week, the EU’s Energy Commissioner, Dan Jorgensøn, warned that Europeans could be facing another winter of painfully high energy bills. The commissioner delivered this stark warning ahead of a meeting with other EU ministers, aimed at reducing fuel and energy bills for consumers. But as winter rapidly approaches, is enough being done by policy makers to really make a difference? And what will it mean for our energy and gas bills or the cost of running a car? To find out what to expect in the months ahead, Irish Times consumer affairs correspondent Conor Pope joins podcast presenter Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan Hosted on Acast.
