Stoen spars with URE over energy tariffs

For some energy recipients the cost of energy will increase by a maximum of 5.1%. For some prices will fall, however, the average price increase will slightly exceed 1%. When establishing prices, a big impact was made by decreasing PSE-Operator's transmission tariff. Only one distribution company, Stoen, has not received a new price list and it is the second year in the row. URE wants the company to cut its prices after refusing to accept Stoen's tariffs last year because the company overpriced its regulated revenue and lowered its sales. Last year Stoen appealed to court and lost its case. It was asked by URE this year to correct the tariff motion. Stoen announced that it would do so but it is not known whether it will comply with URE requirements. (Puls Biznesu p.8) M.M.
