Energy Ministry to present new concept of electricity pricing policy soon – Shmyhal

Minister of Energy Herman Halushchenko will soon present a new concept of electricity pricing policy, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has said.

“In general, in the context of developing a general strategy for electricity prices, the Ministry of Energy is currently developing the concept of the state pricing policy for electricity, for all. There will be a benefit, perhaps, for everyone and the corresponding prices - up to market prices. Now such work is underway, the minister of energy will present it in the near future,” the prime minister said during an hour of questions to the Government held in the Verkhovna Rada on Friday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

As reported by Ukrinform, until the end of June, the price of electricity for population remains at UAH 1.68 per kWh.
