The results of the European Business Association\u2019s ad hoc survey \u201cImpact of electricity outages on business operations<\/strong>\u201d reveal that power supply disruptions complicate operations for the majority of its members (80%). Only a fifth (20%) stated that the outages had no impact on their work, underscoring the widespread effects of electricity issues.<\/p>\n

Among the primary consequences of outages, companies most frequently cite increased production costs (61%), changes in working hours (58%), reductions in production volumes or service provision (50%), and downtime (48%). Financially, this impact is predominantly estimated as a 10\u201330% increase in goods\/services costs, with only a portion of businesses managing to keep this figure within the 2\u20135% range.<\/p>\n

Most companies manage to fulfil their obligations; only 9% of the surveyed companies report that power outages have led to breaches of contract.<\/p>\n

Autonomy and alternative sources<\/strong><\/p>\n

In response to these challenges, businesses are actively investing in energy independence: 90% of surveyed companies report having their own alternative energy sources or\u00a0generation capabilities.<\/p>\n

Nearly 23% of surveyed companies achieve full energy independence. The remaining 38% mostly cover their needs, while another 38% have only partial coverage.<\/p>\n

Among the solutions businesses are implementing or planning to implement for energy supply, energy storage systems, and solar power generation, these take the lead, chosen by 35% and 26% of respondents, respectively. Companies are also investing in new networks and infrastructure (21%), while a smaller share is considering gas (5%), biogas (3%) or wind power generation (1%).<\/p>\n

Expectations from the state<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regarding necessary support, businesses most often highlight the need for financial incentives and predictability. Key requests include:<\/p>\n
