Before January, these norms began to be implemented in Kiev and Odessa.
Gas suppliers, in accordance with the current legislation, in addition to the main payment, can add one more indicator to the bills — a subscription fee for heat and hot water. This is provided for by the law “On Housing and Communal Services” and “On Commercial Accounting of Utilities,” reports the Chronicle.info with reference to RBC-Ukraine.
Before January, these norms began to be implemented in Kiev and Odessa . However, in January, residents of other cities, in particular Ternopil, began to receive updated payments.
“The subscription fee for heat and hot water will be indicated in the bill in separate lines and displayed monthly. It includes the costs of maintaining house heat meters, costs associated with the distribution and administration of services”, — The report says.
The Ternopil City Council explained this innovation by the fact that the money received for the subscription fee will be used to service meters and heating networks.
Earlier it was reported that consumers of services «Kyivteploenergo» in December they will receive payments for November, in which several new lines will appear with charges for subscription services and the operation of heating and hot water systems.
Recall that the National Bank predicts a further increase in tariffs.
«A one-time adjustment of tariffs for housing and communal services to economically justified levels will eliminate imbalances in the energy sector, but will create significant inflationary pressure and lead to a deterioration in expectations. But the postponement of decisions on tariffs for housing and communal services will accumulate quasi-fiscal imbalances and price pressure in the future», — warned the NBU.
