The people of Burgenland have nothing to worry about after the Russian gas supply cut - the gas supply is guaranteed.

Governor Hans Peter Doskozil and Burgenland Energy Board Member Stephan Sharma emphasize that Burgenland is well prepared for Russia's gas supply freeze and can guarantee a secure supply for households. "The information that Russia will stop its gas supplies to Austria and Europe comes as no surprise. At the same time, it should be noted that we are now at the height of the energy crisis. It was always an expected scenario. That is why we have prepared ourselves for this situation," said Doskozil and Sharma following the announcement of the gas freeze by Gazprom.

Warm through the winter
All the measures taken by Burgenland Energie to deal with the loss of Russian gas supplies are now taking effect. "Due to the ongoing gas supply crisis, we have set up a task force since the beginning of 2024 with the aim of securing Burgenland's gas supply for this winter. Burgenland Energie has currently filled the storage facilities to 100 percent and has thus secured the volumes for its customers even in the event of a gas supply interruption," says Sharma.
