Good news in these times of ever-increasing energy prices: Berlin's dominant natural gas supplier, GASAG, will lower its price for gas by 30 cents per kilowatt hour, which works out at about 5%. A four-person household which uses 20,000 kilowatt hours a year will save around €60.

Reason for the reduction: gas prices are linked to oil prices, which have been falling recently. Competition from  gas market newcomer  NUON is also said to have influenced the decision.
