No additional charges for consumers the end of electricity subsidiesas the kilowatt-hour prices announced by the providers for January (green tariff) range at the same or even lower levels than those of the subsidies.
This positive development is primarily the result of the continued de-escalation of the price of natural gas on the international market and the mild weather conditions that keep the wholesale price of electricity low, and secondarily the competition between providers caused by the intervention of the Minister of Environment and Energy Theodoros Skylakakis.
Particularly, PPC announced a charge of 13.63 cents per kilowatt hour for consumption up to 500 kilowatt hours per month. For consumptions above 500 kilowatt hours, the charge is 14.59 cents per kilowatt hour. For those customers on a night rate, the night rate is 11.15 cents per kilowatt hour.
But what about the other providers?
In Protergiathe charge is at 14.26 cents per kilowatt hour.
In HERONthe charge is at 14.05 cents per kilowatt hour.
In Elpedisonthe charge is at 17.06 cents per kilowatt hour
In Natural Gas Hellenic Energy Companythe charge is 14.26 cents per kilowatt hour.
At NRGthe charge is 14.1 cents per kilowatt hour.
In ZeniΘthe charge is 16.94 cents per kilowatt hour.
In Voltonthe charge is 14.42 cents per kilowatt hour.
In Volterrathe charge is 14.39 cents per kilowatt hour.
As the mechanical engineer, former president of TEE Thanasis Giannadakis stated in “Peloponnisos” : “PPC’s green tariff is clearly the cheapest. There are three ways to approach this. First, the majority of the common people chose the green tariff. For January it is the cheapest. The coefficient B is zero. We’ll see what happens in February as there is flexibility per month. If it rises e.g. the energy market in the coming months. Yellow has cheaper rates, but you never know how the month will go. The difference between green and yellow tariffs is that in green the provider has anticipated the market, while in contrast to yellow the risk is taken by you as a consumer”.
Thanasis Giannadakis also commented on the government’s reports that thanks to its interventions, consumers are enjoying a more economical current: “Yes, competition potentially works in this way, but the issue is where you have set the bar. Households and businesses are different cases. For a family, electricity is good. For a business, electricity acts as a factor of production. They are completely different things, then. Can you imagine having a water exchange, like in the US? The outlook is dystopian.”
As of January 1st, consumers who have not chosen another tariff must be included in the green plan. Until January 31, they have the right to object, but without retroactive effect. That is, they can choose to change tariff or provider, but they will pay based on the fees of the green for as many days as they stay on it.
