Slovakia’s government agreed to limit the amount that the largest industrial electricity consumers have to pay into the state nuclear fund to help businesses in the face of an economic slowdown.

The biggest electricity users will pay a maximum 2 million euros ($2.6 million) per year into a fund designed for decommissioning plants and disposing of nuclear waste, Economy Ministry spokesman Stanislav Jurikovic said by phone.
