The National Commission for State Regulation in the Spheres of Energy and Utilities (NKREKU) planned to increase tariffs for water supply and sanitation from June 1, but the issue has been postponed until June 14.
Recall that tariffs for cold water are set separately for each water utility.. That is, prices vary from region to region..
What are your plans for a raise
For example, according to NaPensii, it was proposed to set a tariff for Vinnitsaoblkanal at the level of UAH 47.75 per cubic meter including VAT (now 25.62). For Lutskvodokanal — UAH 32.24 per cubic meter with VAT (currently 28.41), for Dneprvodokanal — UAH 38.79 per cubic meter with VAT (currently 31.36).
If the tariff is increased, then, probably, the highest price for water will be paid in Pavlograd, Dnepropetrovsk region. Here, the tariff was proposed to be raised to 70.62 hryvnia per cubic meter with VAT (now 53.66).
Residents of Odessa planned to increase the tariff for water to 44.86 hryvnia per cubic meter with VAT (now 35.15), for residents of Kyiv - up to 40.46 hryvnia per cubic meter with VAT (now 30.38).
A serious increase threatens the residents of Zhytomyr, where the water tariff is planned to be increased by 56% - up to UAH 58.6 per cubic meter..
Fares could be even higher.
The head of the NEURC Konstantin Ushchapovsky said that now a significant price fluctuation is recorded in the electricity market. When calculating water tariffs, the price for electricity for water utilities was set at the level of UAH 3.20 per kWh. Obviously, after the revision of price caps, the price in the electricity market will increase, which will lead to an even greater increase in water tariffs.
“Therefore, I instruct to carry out an analysis of the impact of the decision to revise the level of price caps for electricity on the level of tariffs for water supply and sanitation due to the fact that this value is 30-40% in the tariff structure, and submit the results of the calculations to the Commission meeting on June 14.
