Reductions in electricity charges for May were announced by the majority of electricity suppliers, following the announcements of PPC which also proceeded to reduce the tariff.
Next month’s electricity tariffs are shaping up to be very close to the government’s target for final consumer charges.
The charges will be posted on the website of the Energy Regulatory Authority as well as on the price observatory.
More specifically, the new fees are:
- PPC: 15.9 cents per kilowatt hour for consumption up to 500 kilowatt hours (up from 16.5 cents in April) and 17.1 cents for consumption over 500 kilowatt hours (up from 17.7 cents in April). For night electricity the charge will be 11.8 cents, up from 12.4 in April.
- Protergia Home Value: 13.96 cents per kilowatt hour (from 14)

JavaScript check if string is empty or whitespace
To check for an empty, undefined, or null string in JavaScript, you can use a combination of checks. Here’s a safe way to do it:
“`javascript
function isEmptyOrNullOrUndefined(str) {
return str === “” || str === null || str === undefined;
}
// Examples:
console.log(isEmptyOrNullOrUndefined(“”)); // true
console.log(isEmptyOrNullOrUndefined(null)); // true
console.log(isEmptyOrNullOrUndefined(undefined)); // true
console.log(isEmptyOrNullOrUndefined(“Hello”)); // false
“`
This function checks if the input `str` is strictly equal to an empty string (`””`), `null`, or `undefined`. You can call this function to validate any string you need.
Additionally, if you want to consider strings that consist only of whitespace as empty, you can enhance the function like this:
“`javascript
function isEmptyOrNullOrUndefinedOrWhitespace(str) {
return str === “” || str === null || str === undefined || str.trim() === “”;
}
“`
This version uses `trim()` to check if the string is made up only of whitespace characters.
