In 2025, the updated tariffs for the transfer of electricity for commercial consumers will come into force in Ukraine. Despite the increase in business costs, home users will continue to pay for electricity at a fixed rate.
The National Energy and Utilities Regulation Commission (NERCEP) has approved a new tariff for electricity transfer, which in 2025 will be 686.23 UAH/MWh. This is 30% more than in 2024. The tariff growth is due to the reflection of almost the full amount of special obligations assigned to Ukrenergo. According to the chairman of the company Alexei Brecht, this is the first similar case over the last four years. At the same time, for green metallurgy enterprises, the tariff for electricity transmission will be reduced by 1.4%, up to 359.55 UAH/MWh h, and the cost of dispatching services will also decrease by 5% - to 98.97 UAH/MVTGD.
For households, tariffs will remain unchanged until May 1, 2025. In the winter of 2024-2025, users will continue to pay for electricity 4.32 UAH/kWh, regardless of changes in the tariffs for transfer.
However, there are various tariff plans in Ukraine: from October to April, electric heating users will pay 2.64 UAH/kWh for the first 2000 kWh. With a three -zone counter, different tariffs are applied depending on the time of day: night time (23: 00–07: 00): 1.728 UAH/kWh. Semi -goat hours: 4.34 UAH/kWh. Peak hours: 6.48 UAH/kWh.
In May 2024, Ukrenergo offered a significant increase in the tariff for the transfer - up to 783.71 UAH/MW*h, which would be 48% of growth. However, the approved increase was more moderate. Nevertheless, updated tariffs reflect the balance between the financial needs of the energy industry and the protection of consumer interests. It is not yet envisaged for home users for home users, but it is important to consider multi -zone tariffs and the ability to save the appropriate meters.
Raising business tariffs can affect the cost of products and services, but the introduced discounts for green metallurgy are demonstrating the desire to support innovative industries.
