ZERE next week publishes the consultative report on new tariffs, the ombudsman warns: It affects the lives of the citizen...

All of this came after reports that three energy companies in Kosovo, KEDS, KESCO and Costa have requested from the Energy Regulatory Office to raise the 1 April tariffs.

However, this still remains under consideration.

In a brief proposal for Periscope, ZRRE Board head Ymer Fejzullahu has said the advisory report is expected to be released next week.

The next “week is expected to release the consultative report, while two weeks remain to be shared with the public for review and comments”, he has declared for Periscope.

Despite reactions, no complaint has been made to the ombudsman so far.

Naim Celaj in a proposal for Periscop confirmed this, saying that every complaint addressed to his office will be addressed, as it says is such a decision directly affects the citizen.

Before we've received any complaints from citizens about energy growth, we've received further complaints of this nature related to electricity tariffs, but we still have to see, if we're given a complaint, but even on official duty we're going to try to deal with it because there's a direct impact on citizens' lives”, the ombudsman lawyer, Naim Qeya, has told Periscope.

Different, Z The RRE conducts the review and assignment of tariffs each year.

Last year, Z The RRE cut the price for commercial and industrial consumers by 3 percent. But a year earlier, in 2023, the tariffs increased by 15 percent for all consumer categories.

Currently, for consumers who spend up to 800 kilowatts per hour within a month, the daily electricity price is 7.79 cents per kilowatt, while for those who spend more than 800 kilowatts, the share on it was estimated at 14.45 cents.

Between 10:00 and 7:00 a.m., the price for kilowatt is 3.34 cents for those who spend up to 800 kilowatts and 6.81 cents for what they spend most. /Periscopi
