THE European Union has revealed
plans to raise more than 140 billion
euros to soften the blow to consum-
ers from soaring energy prices by
skimming off revenues from low-
cost electricity generators and mak-
ing fossil fuel firms share windfall
profits.
e European Commission pub-
lished the proposals on Wednesday
as the 27-member European Union
grapples with an energy crisis fuelled
by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Governments across Europe have
already ploughed hundreds of bil-
lions of euros into tax cuts, hand-
outs and subsidies to tackle a crisis
that is driving up inflation, forcing
industries to shut production and
hiking bills ahead of winter.
