“Premier Energy” SRL requested the National Agency for Energy Regulation to consider increasing the electricity rate for end-users from 1.51 lei/kWh to 2.79 lei/kWh, IPN reports.

In its request, the company makes reference to the power supply price that was recently approved for the central supplier “Energocom” – 2.42 lei/kWh for November-December 2021 and 2.29 lei/kWh as from January 1, 2022, up 96% and, respectively, 86% from the price valid until the end of October 2021. This way, the newly approved prices push the purchase price of electricity up. The company also mentioned the evolution of the power selling prices on the market of Ukraine.

If the National Agency for Energy Regulation accepts the supplier’s request, the electricity will be more expensive as from February 1, 2022.

A year ago, the power rates were raised by 0.17 lei//kWh. This way, for the household users served by “Premier Energy” SRL, who are connected to 0.4 kV low-voltage power distribution networks, the rate was set at 1.51 lei/kWh. The household users served by “Furnizarea Energiei Electrice Nord” SA pay 2.04 lei/kWh.
