Slovenian energy firm Petrol sues state for 177.2 million euros over regulatory losses

Petrol has initiated legal action against the Slovenian government, seeking 177.2 million euros in damages due to regulatory frameworks that negatively impacted its profitability. While the company reported revenue growth, the profit decline is attributed to state-imposed price caps and market interventions. The outcome remains uncertain as the litigation challenges the state's authority to regulate energy pricing during market volatility.
