Summary/Abstract: As a result of efforts to liberalize the electricity sector, substantial changes to the Energy Act have already taken place, the main objective of which is to make a substantial step towards liberalization of the energy market through the integration of the free market of producers whose energy is bought into preferential prices. With the changes to the Energy Act in 2015, the "Energy System Security" Fund was established. The new changes to the Energy Act further develop the status and powers of the Fund, detailing the legal framework, including a new power of the Fund, but also creating a number of discussion questions. The purpose of this article is to discuss some of them by focusing on the status and powers of the Energy Security Fund.
