MUSCAT: The Authority for Public Services Regulation (APSR) followed with interest what was circulated on social media platforms about the soaring electricity bills during the past summer months.
Assigned by the Council of Ministers, APSR will conduct a comprehensive review for electricity costs without prejudice to the service quality. The step aims to come up with sustainable alternatives and solutions to address high electricity bills during summer months for the upcoming years.
Meanwhile, it has been decided to increase the previously reduction rate set on electricity bills for the “residential category” from 15 per cent to 30 per cent of the total bill value for all subscribers with basic and national subsidy accounts for July and August 2023. — ONA
