    I don’t know if this is true for Slovakia, but if you industry is dependent on (cheap) gas, it’s not easy nor cheap to transition to something else.

    Also what is the alternative? One thing would be expensive gas from somewhere else, that might come from Russia via another country anyway. Then what about wind and solar? Well, with solar you become dependent on China, because Europe hasn’t managed to be competitive at all. What about wind then? That’s great, but we still need another source of power when the wind isn’t blowing. Both solar and wind needs rare earth materiels not really found in Europe.

    Also who should pay for all of this?
