The Energy and Water Regulatory Commission (EWRC) held a closed meeting adopting the price of natural gas at which the public supplier would sell natural gas to suppliers and thermal heating plants.
The gas price approved by the Commission as of 1 May 2020 is 22.35 BGN/MWh (excluding prices for access, transmission, excise duty and VAT). Compared to the current price for April 2020 in the amount of 25.20 BGN/MWh the decrease is by 2.85 BGN/MWh or by 11.31%.
The approved price of natural gas of 22.35 BGN/MWh includes the component price of natural gas at the entry point of gas transmission networks, the component for the activity “public supply” and the component for compensation of expenses arising from imposed obligations to the society covering the costs of Bulgargaz EAD for the storage of quantities in the Chiren underground gas storage.
EWRC’s decision to approve the price of natural gas from 1 May 2020 was published on the regulator’s website.
