© on-online.de

In Brief

The municipality of Krummhörn has increased electricity prices at the Greetsiel campervan parking lot eightfold, to €1 per 3 hours. Travelers are outraged; authorities cite rising costs and technical metering limitations.

At the start of the new camping season, the municipality of Krummhörn raised electricity prices at the campervan parking lot in Greetsiel (East Frisia) eightfold, to €1 per 3 hours. This has sparked widespread criticism from travelers.

Reasons and technical limitations

Local authorities explain the new tariff by increased costs. Technical limitations prevent metering actual consumption, so a flat rate was introduced. Previously, according to some reports, the price could reach €1 per hour; now it has been standardized.
