Pressure On to Revive Polish Power Project

GALWAY, IRELAND--June 26, 2013 --Written by Martin Lynch, European News Editor for Industrial Info (Galway, Ireland) Poland's largest power company, Polska Grupa Energetyczna (PGE) (PW:PGE)(Warsaw, Poland) may yet build two new coal-fired units in southern Poland, just two months after cancelling the €2.7 billion ($3.5 billion) project.

Pressure from the government - the largest stakeholder in PGE - has played a role in the change of heart. PGE said it will 're-evaluate' the project in light of the government's increased interest in the project.
