Malta is stepping up efforts to safeguard energy stability as global pressures continue to impact supply and prices. During a meeting at the Delimara Power Station, Prime Minister Robert Abela met with key energy sector representatives alongside Energy Minister Miriam Dalli to discuss ongoing measures aimed at protecting households and businesses.
Among the measures outlined were financial support on energy bills, hedging agreements with international banks, and storage strategies designed to ensure long-term security. Dr Abela noted that despite “difficult and unpredictable international circumstances,” Malta has managed to keep energy prices stable thanks to timely decisions and strategic investments, while reaffirming the Government’s commitment to continue supporting families and businesses.
It was also announced that the Malta Council for Economic and Social Development will meet on Friday, giving social partners a direct briefing on the country’s preparedness plans.
Minister Miriam Dalli highlighted that Malta maintained stable energy prices during both the pandemic and the Ukraine war, adding that local fuel prices remain below the Eurozone average due to subsidies and hedging systems.
