Uproszczona metoda zatwierdzania taryf dla kogeneracji – uprawnienie czy obowiązek?
Simplified method of approving cogeneration tariffs – entitlement or obligation?

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to present the doubts that arise during the application of the law regarding the scope of the usage of the so-called simplified method of approving heat tariffs for cogeneration units in practice. This contribution covers both the provisions of the Energy Law Act and the regulation on the detailed rules of shaping and calculating tariffs and settlements for heat supply. The author, after reviewing a broad scope of literature and jurisprudence, made an attempt to develop a clear common approach to the outlined issue. Providing an unambiguous answer to the question stated in the title, considering the ambiguity of legal regulations, is an important practical problem for the functioning of energy companies. This problem results in far-reaching economic implications for business activities in the heat market. The issue of the possibility of changing the approved tariff during its validity period by using the simplified method is also the subject of the study presented in this article.
