Gigacaloria se scumpește cu 20% în Oradea. Cât va plăti în plus o familie

The Oradea Local Council has approved a 20% increase in the price of gigacalories, effective July 1, raising it from 498 to 596 lei. This change is due to rising gas prices and will initially affect hot water costs, with heating impacts expected in mid-October. The local budget will continue to subsidize the difference, maintaining the subsidy at around 278 lei per gigacalorie. Mayor Florin Birta anticipates a decrease in prices by November due to reduced VAT and gas price caps.
