The proposal, which Nawrocki said aims to ease the burden of soaring energy costs on households, will now be submitted to the Sejm, the lower house of parliament.
"We must address an issue that is fundamental for the Polish economy and for all Poles," Nawrocki said during a press briefing.
"That is why I have put forward a legislative initiative based on four strategic pillars," he added. "This is not just another protective shield, but effectively a sword to cut charges from Poles' electricity bills that they should never have to bear."
The president said the plan would eliminate several additional fees currently included in energy bills, such as renewable energy, capacity, cogeneration and transition charges.
"These fees simply have to be cut from electricity bills," he said, describing the move as "the first pillar" of his proposal.
"The second pillar is to reduce the cost of energy certificates, the third is to lower distribution charges, and the fourth is to change system balancing rules so that costs are borne by entities that cause imbalances in the system," Nawrocki added.
He told reporters that the bill would also lower the value-added tax (VAT) on electricity to 5 percent from the current 23 percent.
According to his office, the new rules could allow Polish households to save more than PLN 800 (EUR 190) a year on energy bills.
Nawrocki first made the pledge during his campaign in February, promising to reduce electricity prices by one-third within 100 days of taking office, state news agency PAP reported.
According to Eurostat, electricity prices in Poland in the first half of 2025 were among the fastest-rising in the entire European Union and, when adjusted for purchasing power standards, also among the highest.
