6 Aug 2026 Capwatt Retail Gás PT, S.A.Portugal: 12,000 EUR against Capwatt over gas reserves and dispute resolution notice €12,000
In several months of 2023 and 2024, the gas supplier did not hold the natural gas security reserves and did not name the competent alternative dispute resolution bodies in customer contracts. The Entidade Reguladora dos Serviços Energéticos (Portuguese Energy Services Regulatory Authority, ERSE) accepted the settlement proposal, set a fine of 24,000 EUR and reduced it to 12,000 EUR.
Mandatory information in consumer contracts – for example on dispute resolution – belongs in a regularly reviewed contract template.
