Abstract

Zusammenfassung Die Politik in Deutschland und vielen anderen EU-Ländern hat seit Spätsommer 2022 zunehmend die Option einer Gaspreisbremse und von Transferzahlungen an private Haushalte bei Gas-, Wärme- und Strombezug diskutiert. Wie eine Gaspreisbremse ausgestaltet sein soll — für jede Gaskundschaft im Haushalts- und Industriebereich oder nur für bestimmte gasverbrauchende Sektoren -, ist bislang analytisch kaum ausgeleuchtet. In Deutschland hat die Kommission für Gas und Wärme Vorschläge gegen die Energiepreisschocks geliefert, wobei von der Politik auch noch eine EU-Verzahnung angedacht ist: Von der Bundesregierung wurde auf dem Brüsseler EU-Ratsgipfel im Oktober bislang nur grünes Licht für ein Mehr an gemeinschaftlichem Gaseinkauf gegeben. Auf Basis eines makroökonomischen Modells wird aufgezeigt, dass ein spezieller Gaspreisdeckel nur beim Strommarkt — ergänzt um bestimmte Transfermaßnahmen — für die Volkswirtschaft ökonomisch optimal ist.
