Morawiecki emphasized that he would not tolerate “a situation in which the extraordinary profits of state-owned companies - and foreign companies - are realized at the expense of citizens or sensitive institutions.” He added that he instructed the Ministry of State Property and the Ministry of Climate to develop appropriate legal solutions as soon as possible.
- Today we have a situation where the price for next year’s delivery is sold on the Commodity and Energy Exchange based on the price of coal in the Netherlands, and not on the price of coal purchased by power plants from Polish mines. This is the mechanism that causes these high offers for the next year. We do not agree with this, and I am very clear about this. It cannot be that a dozen or so board members of these companies have become rich at the expense of society, he added.

Prime Minister on Energy Pricing Mechanisms
He also announced the taxation of these companies in order to obtain funds for further financing of aid and social programs from the state budget.
- We will not tolerate such price fixing, which is five to ten times higher - a margin of 700, 800, 900 zlotys per megawatt-hour - and this is what we are dealing with now, - he assured.
According to Prime Minister Morawiecki, the turmoil in the world market is also being exploited by foreign entities, who, he added, want to shape the market for themselves because they know exactly what is at stake.
- I also know what these mechanisms are - I perfectly understand the mechanism of pricing for electricity. We will definitely demand its changes, so that for the Poles???? it was the cheapest. As prime minister, I will be watching this,” he said.
Poles talk about it only at home. Tusk has no doubt why…
