Mariusz Swora, URE's chairman, said that in view of the economic downturn, he would not allow increases of more than 5 percent. For an average household with annual bills of zł.800 - 1,000, this would mean a rise of no more than zł.50 per year, way below the zł.208-420 hike proposed by the power companies.

The latter described URE's position as "shocking", arguing that the 5 percent cap would render both power generation and distribution unprofitable, forcing companies to forgo key investments and, eventually, face bankruptcy. "URE's proposed price would not cover even our power generation costs; only brown coal-based power would remain profitable," said Tomasz Zadroga, chairman of PGE, Poland's biggest power generator.
