Trade unions critical of ministry's comments on coal phaseout strategy

Ljubljana, 20 April - Two trade unions representing workers in the energy sector are critical of the Infrastructure Ministry's comments about the draft coal phaseout strategy. It is not true that the phaseout will not have a major long-term effect on electricity prices, the unions said, adding that the deadline year for the phaseout had been set politically.
