The winter package is a favorable compromise for Poland (INTERVIEW)
We are confident that this year’s auctions on the capacity market will be held on the old rules. Can the same be expected by the end of 2019? After the announcement of the outcome of the negotiations, interpretation doubts arose, although they are diluted in favor of, among others, Poland. Except for exceptions, new coal units after entry into force of the Regulation, i.e. in Q2 2019, will not be allowed to participate in capacity mechanisms, they will be excluded by the emission standard of 550 g / KWh. It means that they will not be supported anymore. The existing ones, which will participate in the auctions after 2019, will be able to use the support until 2025. The derogation from these rules will apply to obligations and contracts concluded by the end of 2019 within existing mechanisms in force in several EU countries, including Poland. This sets the direction for the transformation of our electricity market and what is most important sets a specific time frame for the modernization of the sector – says Paweł Wróbel, former director of the office of the Polish Electricity Committee in Brussels in an interview with BiznesAlert.pl.
