Slovaks should prepare for the gradual implementation of price deregulation, said Karol Galek, state secretary of the Economy Ministry.
Slovakia should implement the winter energy package of the EU into its own legislation this year. The deregulation should come with it, as promised in the programme statement of the government.
The prices of electricity and gas for households will decrease this year and companies can also look forward to cheaper energy costs.
Market development
The state secretary admitted that a drop in prices is not only thanks to the regulatory office and the artificial intervention of the state in price regulation.
