Signing of the agreement with the exchange will enable us to act more actively and to maintain the price framework determined by the market for all participants. Upon signing of the agreement we have accepted the responsibility not only for our own actions but also for market directions – says Katarzyna Rozenfeld, Vice-President of the Management Board of TAURON Polska Energia for Commercial Affairs.
