The full details of the new electricity tariff in Iran have been announced

In line with the implementation of Article 6 of the Law on Removing Obstacles to the Development of the Electricity Industry, the Ministry of Energy announced the full details of the new electricity tariff in Iran.

The tariff for electricity subscribers is determined every year by the Islamic Council and based on the laws and regulations approved and determined by the legislature, taking into account the approach of allocating more subsidies to low-consumption subscribers and requiring high-consumption subscribers to reduce consumption and comply with the model.

According to the latest internal news, the Ministry of Energy has revised the electricity tariffs of the household sector subscribers with the aim of fair distribution of energy subsidies and encouraging high consumption subscribers to save money and informed the full details of the new electricity tariff in Iran.

The calculation basis of the new electricity tariff in Iran and its application on the customers’ bills

According to the announcement of the Ministry of Energy, this year the electricity tariff of the subscribers will be calculated based on the rules included in the law “Removing obstacles to the development of the electricity industry” approved in 1401. Based on this, the tariffs of the domestic sector have been increased in two tariff sections for low-consumption subscribers and high-consumption subscribers (with higher consumption than the model) separately for different normal and tropical areas (under the influence of temperature and humidity).

Tariffs whose calculation base is coefficients of electricity supply cost (including production, transit and fuel costs) have increased by 207 Tomans per kilowatt hour compared to 1402. This means that the cost of electricity supply in 1402 was equivalent to 5472 Rials, which has reached 7542 Rials this year. According to the published statistics, 75% of the subscribers in different regions are low-consumption subscribers whose electricity tariff is subsidized and they pay a maximum of 20% of the cost of electricity supply, including the cost of fuel and value-added taxes.

For example, the bill of a subscriber in normal areas with 200 kilowatt hours of electricity consumption (at the model level in the cold season of the year) considering the cost of electricity supply, value added tax and Electricity charges this year for a period of two months will be equal to 30 thousand tomans, which has increased by 7 thousand 500 tomans compared to last year. Also, subscribers whose electricity consumption is higher than the announced pattern will be subject to higher bills in an exponential manner.

Based on this, the electricity tariff of household subscribers which is up to the level of the model, excess of the model up to one and a half (1.5) times, excess of it up to two and a half (2.5) times and the amount of consumption more than two and a half ( 2.5) be equal to the cost of their electricity supply, respectively calculated with the coefficients of half (0.5), one and a half (1.5), two and a half (2.5) and five (5) times the cost of electricity supply and is received

With the aim of creating an opportunity for compliance and preventing a significant increase in the electricity of low-consumption subscribers, the law has given the Ministry of Energy the opportunity to charge very low costs, i.e. less than half of the electricity supply costs from the subscribers within the model. For example, if a subscriber consumes 170 kilowatt hours of electricity in the cold season of the year in normal areas where the model is 200 kilowatts, for consumption from 0 to 100 per kilowatt hour only 14% of the supply cost is 1071 Rials and for consumption from 101 to 170. He will pay 16% of the cost of provision, i.e. 1252 rials.

Also, if a subscriber in the cold season, where the pattern of electricity consumption in normal areas is 200 kilowatts, consumes electricity up to 4 times more than the pattern, i.e. 800 kilowatt hours, he will be subject to an electricity bill of about 2 million tomans, which is an increase of 550,000 compared to last year. It has tomani. Customers’ electricity bills will increase by 5 times the supply cost, i.e. 37 thousand and 710 rials, if they consume more than 2.5 times the model (between 750 and 800 kilowatt hours).

According to the latest monitoring carried out by the Ministry of Energy, about 75% of subscribers consume electricity within the framework of the model, whose electricity bill is less than 50 thousand Tomans and has increased by less than 7,500 Tomans compared to last year. On the other hand, 2% of household electricity subscribers who consume electricity more than 2.5 times the standard (more than 750 kilowatt hours in the cold season in normal areas) alone account for 10% of the total household electricity consumption and should be 5 pay the cost of electricity supply.
