Purdila stated that producers have high fixed costs which must be recovered even if sales drop.

In the first two months of the year, energy consumption drooped 9.6% countrywide, according to Transelectrica’s preliminary data.

According to the company, Romania’s energy consumption evolution for 2009 cannot be estimated yet.

The latest electricity price adjustment, of 5.3%, took place in July 2008.
