New energy bill could drastically cut electricity& gas bills

If new energy deregulation legislation comes into effect, the price paid for electricity, gas, and heat by both domestic and commercial users could be reduced by as much as 75%. The new legislation would allow suppliers to charge for metered-energy consumption only, and not allow them to add on others charges such as fixed costs. However, the legislation has been called into question by the Constitutional Tribune which says fixing energy prices breaches a clause in the constitution which defines Poland as a free market economy where prices are set by the market forces of supply and demand and not by government.
