Consumers in Saxony can expect heating costs to rise significantly. According to calculations by energy service provider Techem, Saxony is one of the federal states most affected by cost increases.
Households with a district heating supply are particularly affected: According to the report, a sample household in the state has to pay around 18 percent more for this than in the previous year. Operators of gas heating systems can expect costs to rise by 14.5 percent. Only in Baden-Württemberg are the cost increases predicted to be even higher than in Saxony.
