Minister Proposes Gradual Unfreezing of Energy Prices, Ensuring Moderate Increases

In a recent announcement on TOK FM radio, Minister of Climate and Environment Paulina Hennig-Kloska emphasized the necessity of a gradual transition from frozen energy prices, suggesting a modest 15% increase as the mildest option. She highlighted the ongoing preparation of a draft law on energy prices, slated for presentation within two weeks. Assuring against drastic spikes, Hennig-Kloska affirmed a commitment to maintaining affordability for households, including the consideration of additional tariffs later in the year. The current legislation extends frozen electricity prices until mid-2024, with adjustments aimed at supporting consumers and small businesses while indexing protective allowances to inflation rates.
