Summary/Abstract: Taking into consideration the direct horizontal effect of the Regulation (UE) 2022/1854, insofar as the capped prices would not insure the recovery of the costs of the suppliers, even if the Romanian authorities will not amend the support scheme legislation in the energy domain in order to set all the legal enactments in line with the Regulation in relation to the compensation mechanism of the suppliers, in order to ensure the full recovery of the supply costs, the limited categories of beneficiaries and the consumption limits of the electricity volumes, the energy suppliers may legally oppose to conclusion for such a supply contract. Irrespective, if a customer (household or non-household) which would invoke their right to be supplied with electricity at capped prices the electricity suppliers' right will prevail in order not to be obliged to supply to such clients at prices that will be below costs.
