​KosovaPress has obtained a decision from the Commercial Court of Kosovo, Administrative Affairs Department, dated June 25, 2025, regarding the annulment of the Energy Regulatory Office’s (ZRRE) notice on entering the liberalized energy market.

The complaint was filed by lawyer Agron Selimaj from Pristina.

According to the court ruling, the Commercial Court approved the plaintiff’s request for a security measure to suspend the execution of the June 3, 2025 notice. The execution of the notice, which prohibited the plaintiff from using supply from the universal service as designated by ZRRE, is suspended until the court issues a final decision on the lawsuit.

Two days earlier, KosovaPress had also obtained a ruling dated June 19, 2025, where the court approved the request to suspend execution of the same ZRRE notice.

The Kosovo Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DhTIK) supports its earlier statements that the liberalization process included procedural and substantive violations highlighted by European institutions.

DhTIK reacted to recent statements from ZRRE mentioning an alleged court ruling related to their lawsuit, stating that they have not received any court decision and that ZRRE’s claim the process cannot be stopped contradicts principles of the rule of law and judicial protection.

The Kosovo Chamber of Commerce (OEK) announced a second ruling within two days that annulled the ZRRE notice on market liberalization.

OEK encourages businesses affected by this decision to pursue legal protection and has established a legal team to assist in drafting documents against the ZRRE notice.

The American Chamber of Commerce in Kosovo reiterated concerns about the implementation of market liberalization following the court rulings suspending ZRRE’s decisions.

The court suspended execution of the notice until a final judicial decision.

Besides this case, the Kosovo Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Kosovo Chamber of Commerce, and other businesses have also opposed ZRRE’s decision.

ZRRE had announced that KEK was designated as the Supplier of Last Resort for six months, from August 31, 2025, to January 31, 2026.

ZRRE postponed contract deadlines following protests by Kosovo businesses opposing market liberalization.

Businesses protested, arguing the decision would burden Kosovo’s economy.
