The energy tariff system and development of competition in the scope of polish energy law

摘要

This article presents problems associated with the development of competition onthe Polish energy market in the context of tariffs and pricing. National standardsare set against the background of European legislation and the activities of theEnergy Regulatory Office. The thesis is that the tariffs concerning distributionshould be approved by the President of this authority because it is a naturalmonopoly, something the authors demonstrate in the following part of the article.However, the tariffs concerning selling should be free from confirmation even forhouseholds because this is a typical market. The authors do not ignore legal analysisand practical issues.
