Poland’s Minister for Energy Tchórzewski is desperately looking for the missing 3 billions for the construction of Ostrołęka C. His latest idea is to take over 20 billion from the unionists' pension funds.
więcejOn September 3, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Energa, despite the opposition of some shareholders, decided to issue a directional consent for the commencement of the work for the Ostrołęka C power plant. This is to the detriment of the company, shareholders and the society – environmental organizations comment.
