Supreme Court dismisses appeal, ruling energy regulator's order to conclude a heat sales contract valid under Energy Law.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against the Regional Court's decision to revoke the energy regulator's order. The regulator had issued a decision to conclude a heat sales contract based on a request by the supplier to establish service conditions, while the housing cooperative argued the regulator should have ruled on the validity of the refusal to sign. The court held that the regulator's decision was legally sound because it was issued in response to a specific request to facilitate contract formation and set service terms, thereby falling within its statutory competence under the Energy Law.
