The Romanian government is considering reducing VAT on electricity to help vulnerable consumers facing high energy costs. This measure aims to lower electricity prices, which are currently the highest in Europe. The VAT reduction would depend on family income, and all households are protected under regulated gas prices. The situation reflects a broader trend of rising energy prices across the EU. Authorities are also working to restart energy production units to address supply deficits. Vulnerable consumers include those affected by income, age, health, or isolation. Despite concerns about rising bills, officials assure that electricity costs will not double for the same consumption.
