Expensive gas, dispute over EU energy policy, record profits of fuel companies

In the latest episode of "Your Business," the rising gas prices prompt the Polish government to consider assistance measures for consumers. Natural gas prices have exceeded 100 euros per MWh, the highest since 2022, leading to potential increases in household bills. The Ministry of Energy is exploring options such as freezing gas prices and compensation systems for sellers. Meanwhile, EU countries oppose the European Commission's proposals for energy taxation changes, arguing it undermines national regulators' independence. Additionally, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East boosts profits for European oil companies, while economists suggest various strategies to address Poland's budget deficit, including tax adjustments and spending cuts.
