Abstract
The tariff study was initiated by the World Bank and is expected to contribute to the process of restructuring the Polish energy sector. The overall objective of the restructuring is to improve economic efficiency in the supply and use of energy. It will also involve changes in the regulatory framework, governance and ownership. The objective of the study was to provide operational guidelines and recommendations for Polish district heating tariffs in the perspective of a national energy policy and including a legal framework, other regulations, subsidies and taxes. A detailed presentation of tariffs and legal measures in Western Europe (mainly related to Denmark) is followed by proposals related to the Polish scene. Tariffs should ensure that utilities recover all costs and that the overall energy policy is implemented. It is part of a financial relation between a seller and a buyer of heat. The specific tariff must be defined by the parties involved in accordance with policy, legislation, organization and technology. Detailed recommendations are given on the legal framework and regulations, incentives and general tariff principles. It is advised that using fuel taxes and subsidies as energy-saving measures should be considered. Tariffs should be incentives to the involved parties to
