According to the list of legislative and program works of the Council of Ministers, the Ministry of Climate and Environment is working on a draft act amending the Energy Law and the act on renewable energy sources.<\/span> The planned date of approval of the project by the government is the third quarter of 2021.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

According to the information published in the list, the proposed changes result in particular from the need to implement the EU Directive (EU) 2019\/944 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on common rules for the internal market in electricity into the Polish legal system.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The draft act proposes, inter alia, the introduction of regulations on the mechanism of non-market limitation of energy generation from renewable energy sources by electricity system operators.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The project assumes, among others<\/span> introduction of regulations enabling, from 2026, a technical change of electricity supplier in 24 hours.<\/span> An access to the tool for comparing electricity sales offers is also to be introduced for electricity consumers in households and micro-entrepreneurs (with an annual consumption of less than 100,000 kWh).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

According to the draft, the President of the ERO is to be authorized to intervene ex officio or upon a party’s request in the content of the contract for the provision of transmission or distribution services of gaseous fuels or electricity concluded between the seller and the distribution system operator or the transmission system operator, in specific cases.<\/span> The President of the Energy Regulatory Office is also to be authorized to independently determine the prices and rates of charges for an energy company in the event of his refusal to approve the tariff to that undertaking, when this decision is justified by the necessity to lower prices and fee rates.<\/span><\/span>
