Minister opens the door to ERSE reinforcing powers to sanction fuel companies

The Minister of Environment and Energy, Maria da Graça Carvalho, advocated that ERSE should extend its sanctioning powers to the National Petroleum System, in a letter sent to the regulator's president. The minister requests that the economic supervision and regulation competencies be deepened, ensuring consumer protection. The regulator acknowledges that, although it has been exercising regulatory functions over the petroleum sector since 2018, the sanctioning regime did not follow this evolution, remaining dissociated from supervision obligations. ERSE notes that strengthening the sanctioning regime should not be confused with price control mechanisms, and should focus only on non-compliance with legal obligations. The minister also requested greater transparency in fuel prices and a report on next steps and possible legislative needs.
