Info Post
From The Prague Daily Monitor:
The price of electricity could grow substantially in the future if a coalition of the Civic Democrats, Christian Democrats and Greens is formed and pushes through an energy policy limiting coal mining and construction of nuclear power plants, daily Mlada fronta Dnes writes today.

The government currently being formed has, at the proposal of the Greens, decided not to lift the limits on coal mining in northern Bohemia and not to build more nuclear power plants.

Power company CEZ has warned that this would not only raise the price of electricity but would also pose the threat of its shortage.

CEZ spokesman Ladislav Kriz said that if such an energy policy was really pushed through "the country's dependence on energy imports would increase dramatically".
Could they be referring to imports like Russian natural gas?
