Adaptation strategy on regulated markets of power companies in Poland

Abstract

Electric utilities (power companies), which include production, transmission, distribution, and trade of electricity play an important role in a national economy. Many scientific institutions undertook the research concerning the issues of the power sector. The main reason was to find an answer to the question: Which of the developed strategies that ensure energy security of the country concerning with energy distribution and resources management should be taken into consideration? Should the companies adopt the strategy of adaptation or perhaps the strategy of breakthrough? If they follow the adaptation course, should it be a passive or active adaptation, and which circumstances are the most important? These questions were constantly analyzed by the author in his research realized among the power companies.
