Eleringi's Gas Plant Plan Faces Widespread Opposition

Estonia's energy company Eleringi has proposed a plan for gas power plants, but the initiative has met with widespread disapproval from various stakeholders. The deadline for feedback has recently passed, and while not all opinions have been published, some initial responses have been made public by Eleringi itself.

Interested parties can access an anonymized Excel file on Eleringi's website detailing the feedback. Although the specific entities behind each comment are not revealed, it is possible to infer their identities. Several market participants have previously voiced criticism and skepticism, both publicly and privately.

These include leaders involved in constructing a nuclear power plant, developers of wind and solar farms, the state-owned energy company Eesti Energia, and the CEO of the Estonian Employers' Confederation. The general sentiment suggests that few individuals, apart from Eleringi and the Minister of Energy and Environment Andres Sutt, are enthusiastic about the gas power plant proposal.
