Many countries of the world have started taking measures as a result of the energy plan for gas rationing due to the war in Ukraine.

Switzerland is considering jailing up to three years for anyone who heats their rooms above 19 degrees Celsius this winter. 

The country could also impose fines on those who violate the proposed new regulations.

Speaking to Blick, Markus Sporndli, who is a spokesman for the Federal Department of Finance, explained that the rate of fines on a daily basis can start from 30 Swiss francs. He added that the maximum fine could be up to 3,000 Swiss francs.

The new regulation also provides that companies that deliberately exceed their gas quotas may face administrative penalties.

According to the new measures, temperatures in gas-heated buildings cannot be more than 19 degrees Celsius.

Blick also reported that radiant heaters will not be allowed while pools and saunas will have to stay cool.

The measures are set out in the Federal Law on National Economic Supply, which the Federal Department of Economic Affairs refers to in an official document.

Regarding the proposed new measures, the cantons of Switzerland have until September 22 to submit any concerns./CNA.al
