Reduced electricity rates scheduled in Almaty, effective from February 1st
In a welcome announcement made by the Committee for the Regulation of Natural Monopolies of the Ministry of National Economy, it was revealed that starting from February 1, electricity tariffs for households in Almaty will decrease by 1.5%. This reduction is expected to bring about substantial savings for both households and legal entities in the city.
The news, reported by a correspondent for Almaty.tv, states that the decrease in electricity tariffs is a direct result of the reduction in tariffs for transmission, balancing, and capacity provision. As a result, households are expected to save slightly over half a billion tenge, while legal entities are expected to save a significantly higher amount of 820 million tenge.
The new household electricity tariff will be 16.86 tenge per kilowatt-hour without VAT, marking a decrease from the previous rate of 17.12 tenge per kilowatt-hour. For legal entities, the decrease in electricity tariff is from an unspecified previous rate.
It is important to note that this reduction applies only to Almaty residents and does not extend to other parts of the country. The savings for households and legal entities are an estimated amount, and the paragraph does not provide information on the new electricity tariff rates for households and legal entities after the decrease.
The announcement was made as a news report, but there is no specific information in the provided search results about an institution or person announcing the reduction of the electricity tariff for household deliveries by 1.5%.
This reduction in electricity tariffs is expected to bring much-needed relief to households and legal entities in Almaty, providing a boost to their finances and helping to alleviate the economic pressures faced by many in these challenging times. The decrease in electricity tariff is effective from February 1.
