FACUA warns that the electricity bill has raised a 19% since January, 13 Euros per month for the average user

FACUA-Consumers in Action warns that the electricity bill has raised a 19.2% since January. Users pay 13 Euros more per month now considering September’s average rate.

Users paid a 7.8% more last September than September 2013. Tariffs are much more expensive nowadays than they were when the price was bid-based, a method changed by the Government last January.

The association also asks for a historical audit of the tariff’s deficit and a legal change to forbid the so-called revolving door –energy firms hiring former presidents, ministers and other senior officials from the Government and the Gov
