NERC once again launched the procedure for reviewing the limit prices for electricity.
The National Commission is considering the issue of reviewing the limit prices for electricity
On December 4, the National Energy Regulatory Commission (NERC) started the procedure for reviewing the limit prices for electricity. The corresponding draft decision has been approved.
'We are starting the procedure for reviewing the limit prices in order to respond promptly,' said the head of the commission, Yurii Vlasenko.
In the project, NERC proposes to keep the limit prices at the current level, but they can be increased or canceled before a final decision is made.
The necessity of reviewing the limit prices is explained by the need to create conditions for the commercial import of electricity from Europe.
'We can import 2.1 GW of electricity, but in fact, we do not receive these figures. The highest number is 70%, because importers will not enter our market if it is not profitable. We are asking to cancel the limit prices,' said MP Viktoria Gryb.
The review of limit prices will not affect the fixed level of electricity prices for the population, but may lead to an increase in prices for businesses.
Representatives of the Nikopol Ferroalloy Plant warned that an increase in limit prices may lead to the shutdown of energy-intensive enterprises.
