Polish Briefing: PGE collects savings for investments after the crisis

What goes on in Poland on the 28th of May.

The date of commissioning the coal block in Turów may be at risk

PGE sees the risk of delaying a new block in Turów in connection with the ongoing pandemic – said PGE CEO Wojciech Dąbrowski. The president of PGE was asked about the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the company’s investments. He said block 7 in Turów is the most threatened. – We are actually finishing the investment, but the delivery date is a bit at risk due to the problem of movement. Contractors and subcontractors employ employees from outside Poland. After the first quarter of 2020, investment progress was 96 percent. However, we see the risk of not meeting the deadline – said President Wojciech Dąbrowski during the video conference.
