(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 1. Tariffs for
electricity and gas for consumers in the Czech Republic, which grew
sharply since early 2022, have begun to significantly decrease,
trend reports via
TASS.
The Czech E.ON company has revised electricity and gas tariffs
for households since March 31.
The tariffs on gas dropped most significantly, which will allow
consumers who switch to them to save tens of thousands of crowns
(many hundreds of dollars) per year.
The cost of kWh for electricity in E.ON is 6.63 crowns (about 30
cents), including taxes. Competing companies offer households
tariffs per kWh well above seven crowns (approximately 35 cents).
E.ON's gas fell to less than two crowns (less than nine cents) per
kWh.
Thus, households will save an average of 1,800 crowns ($83) to
5,000 crowns ($231) per year on electricity, depending on whether
they live in small apartments or cottages. The new gas tariffs will
allow them to save much more annually.
In the Czech Republic, E.ON offers the most attractive household
energy tariffs among other energy companies operating in the
country.
"This (decrease of energy tariffs) is yet another proof of how
well the recovery in the gas market is going," an energy expert
Jiri Gavor said.
Meanwhile, according to him, the market price of gas isn't
expected to fall to the level of 2019-2020.
Its value now exceeds that level by two times, added the
expert.
