An open meeting to discuss a report on an application by "Bulgargaz" to approve the price of natural gas for January 2023 will be held today at 10:00 a.m. in the building of the Commission for Energy and Water Regulation (KEVR).

This is clear from the regulator's program.

The public supplier proposed for approval for the next month a price at which to sell natural gas to final suppliers and to persons who have been issued a license for the production and transmission of thermal energy, in the amount of BGN 204.53 per megawatt hour (MWh), without access, transfer, excise and VAT prices. 

BTA reminds that KEVR confirmed the price of natural gas for December of BGN 146.09/MWh, excluding prices for access, transmission, excise duty and VAT.

This means that, if approved by KEVR, the increase in the price of blue fuel from January 1 will be 39.73 percent.

It is expected that the price of gas for January will be below BGN 200.
