Venstre’s leader Jakob Ellemann-Jensen proposed to lower the electricity tax from 72,3 øre / Kwh hour to 0,8 øre / Kwh hour for the next 6 months. The Conservative’s leader Søren Pape proposed the same reduction until 2030 instead of 6 months.
- Enhedslisten and SF are against the idea of lowering the electricity tax. They argue that it will cost the state budget 3.5 billion DKK, which will need to be cut from somewhere else.
- A model is being discussed in which the electricity tax would be lowered only for the lower-income segment of the population.
