Bandages increase the price of energy for 48,500 families, the block over 800 kwh costs 22.5% of consumption, here are the categories affected by the government's proposal

Bandages increase the price of energy for 48,500 families, the block over 800

The energy restriction for households consuming over 800 kwh will affect almost 48,500 households. "SOT" newspaper has provided the updated official figures for the consumption of family subscribers for the year 2022, where it turns out that the government's plan to restore the 2-block charging scheme will translate into higher expenses for a significant number of subscribers. Meanwhile, with the change of the block from 700 kwh, which was the initial plan, to 800 kwh, the government seems to have planned to "save" about 20,000 more families, resulting within this consumption phase. However, in case of the approval of the scheme by the Energy Regulatory Authority, OSHEE will collect significantly more money, given that the increase in price will result in billing at higher prices for nearly 22.5% of the energy consumed by Albanian households. In parallel, the government's plans for the return of bands for charging electricity mean that the price increase will not affect only 32% of consumption. This is due to the structure or division in its category, where for a part the price has already increased, a part is in the liberalized market, a large amount is a loss in the network, while for the rest the increase is being sought through the return of bandages . More specifically, according to official data for the 6th month of this year, 22.2% of total consumption was loss in the transmission and distribution network, 11% of energy is consumed by businesses that have entered the liberalized market and provide through individual contracts with other suppliers of the necessary energy, while for 12.4% of consumption, which includes businesses that are supplied by OSHEE, as a Supplier of Last Chance, the price has already increased by about 70%. If we also include 22.5% of the above household consumption, then only 32% of the energy consumed will not be expensive. However, the final decision on price changes rests with the Energy Regulatory Authority.

Balluku reacts

But as we are 1 month away from billing with bandages, the government has not yet determined what the new price will be for families that spend more than 800 kilowatts, which the government considers wealthy families. Deputy Prime Minister Belinda Balluku stated yesterday in a press conference after the government meeting, that the latter has proposed two solutions regarding the placement of the 800 kWh bandage for Albanian families. According to the Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, the increase in the price of energy to 1040 euros forces the immediate taking of measures to protect citizens. "A study has been done on how many families are affected and how much this price will be. We intend not to touch the market price. Last night at 20:00 the price on the Hungarian stock exchange, which also refers to Albania, reached 1040 euros per megawatt. You can calculate yourself how much kilowatt per hour is and if we were to expose our citizens to these prices it would be impossible. However, the 800 kilowatt band has several proposals from the Distribution Operator and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy, which will be discussed by the Council of Ministers to choose the one that will be best to optimize the finances of the sector, but also to differentiate the social shield that we give to the citizen for the needs of a family in terms of electricity and then those citizens who decide to spend more but it remains at their discretion to pay a higher price", stated Balluku.
