The Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) has today received from the Commercial Court – Second Instance Chamber the ruling regarding the interim measure in the case of electricity market liberalization.

The decision of the Commercial Court – Second Instance Chamber approved ERO’s appeal and amended Point IV of the Judgment KA.nr.301/25 of the Commercial Court – First Instance Chamber, thereby rejecting the plaintiff’s request to postpone the liberalization of the electricity market.

As previously emphasized, the electricity market liberalization process is fully in compliance with existing legislation, carried out in a transparent and impartial manner, respecting all procedural and substantive standards. The legality of this process continues to be confirmed by competent courts, most recently by the Commercial Court – Second Instance Chamber, verifying that all steps have been undertaken in accordance with the applicable laws of the Republic of Kosovo.

ERO calls on all commercial consumers who are required to operate in the liberalized market and have not yet signed a commercial electricity supply contract to act without delay and choose one of the licensed suppliers listed on ERO’s official website. From August 16, 2025, commercial consumers who have not signed a contract with a licensed supplier will be disconnected from the electricity network.

ERO remains committed to ensuring a fair, functional, and competitive electricity market that serves consumers in accordance with local legislation and European standards.
