Elektro Maribor found to have coordinated household electricity price increase

Summary

Slovenia's Competition Protection Office found that Elektro Maribor and four other electricity distributors acted in concert when they announced almost identical household electricity price increases on 22-23 November 2007, all effective on 1 January 2008. The authority concluded that the conduct prevented, restricted or distorted competition in Slovenia. The Supreme Court later upheld the national competition-law finding, while setting aside only the separate EU-law conclusion concerning cross-border trade effects.
