Due to Russian military aggression in Ukraine, hostilities continue, and enemy missile strikes destroy critical infrastructure. But Ukrainians must pay utility bills.

In Ukraine, during the war, all tariffs were frozen for individuals, however, some utilities grew in price throughout the year and some of them were raised from January 2023. In particular, the tariff for electricity for non-residential consumers has increased, and the price for private consumers and businesses for cold water and drainage will also change, writes "

How much you need to pay for water and water supply.

On December 27, 2022, the National Commission for the Regulation of Energy and Utilities (NKREKU) decided to increase tariffs for cold water and sewerage for 2023. Prior to this, it was planned to raise tariffs in two stages - from January 1 and from July 2023..

But on December 30, NEURC sent for revision its own decision of December 27, which allowed 32 water utilities of Ukraine to increase tariffs for water supply and sanitation.

On the website of the NEURC, in the decision of December 27, the wording was changed to “The issue for revision (adjustment) on the adoption of NEURC resolutions on setting tariffs for centralized water supply and centralized sewerage (clarified)”.

This means that while the tariffs for water supply and sewerage will not increase.

Gas tariff.

In July, the Cabinet of Ministers extended the fixed gas price for heat producers (UAH 7.4. per cubic meter) until May 31, 2023.

A constant gas price will allow local authorities not to raise tariffs for heat and hot water supply.
