Gas and electric power tariffs rose 18.2% and 26.7%, respectively,
in Armenia on July 7 2013, the Public Services Regulatory Committee
of Armenia adopted a relevant decision on June 7.
As it was reported earlier, the Committee adopted the decision on
the basis of ArmRusgasprom Company's application for revision of the
gas tariff and satisfied it partially. Thus, the gas price for the
consumers using up to 10,000 cu m of gas monthly will total 156,000
vs. previous 132,000 drams. For those who consume over 10,000 cu m of
gas monthly, gas tariff will rise to $276.98 instead of the current
$243 per 1,000 cu m (up 14%).
Tariff for services of the operator will be increased from the current
20.618 drams for transportation of every 1,000 normal cu m of natural
gas to 25.637 drams. Tariff for distribution of natural gas will rise
from the current 13709.698 drams per 1,000 normal cu m of natural
gas to 19278.021 drams. Tariff for transportation of natural gas will
rise from the current 6948.266 drams per 1,000 normal cu m of gas to
9806.045 drams.
PSRC adopted a decision to increase also electric power tariff as the
expenditures of power generating companies will grow. Thus, in daytime,
the electric power tariff for the population will make up 38 AMD per
1 kWh instead of the current 30 AMD and at nighttime the tariff will
rise to 28 AMD instead of the current 25 AMD. For commercial users,
the tariff will rise to 29-35 AMD per 1 kWh at daytime and 25 AMD at
nighttime instead of the current 21-35 AMD per kWh daytime and 17 AMD
per 1 kWh for nighttime depending on the volume of consumption. As
a result, taxi tariffs also grew 15%-20% in average.
