Factura la curentul electric crește cu 60 de lei pe lună. Un proiect al Guvernului elimină plafonarea energiei • Newsweek România

The Romanian government is set to eliminate energy price caps, leading to a monthly increase of 60 lei for consumers. The adjustment of OUG 27/2022 signals a shift towards deregulated energy prices, impacting mainly low to medium consumers who may see their bills rise by 50% to 80%. In contrast, larger consumers, already paying higher rates, may benefit from competitive offers. The changes are driven by unsustainable state subsidies and significant debts owed to energy suppliers. The new pricing structure will reflect market conditions rather than consumption tiers, with average prices expected between 1.10 and 1.40 lei/kWh. Suppliers face liquidity challenges as they transition to this new pricing model.
