Electricity Authority Explains Tariff Increase
The article reveals the rise in electricity prices in Egypt and the reasons behind it. The spokesperson for the Ministry of Electricity confirmed that the increase was due to higher loads caused by unprecedented heat, which forced the ministry to raise tariffs to ensure grid stability and improve service quality. He pointed out that the average citizen consumes around 200 to 400 kilowatt-hours and pays a percentage ranging from 42% to 49% of the total bill, while the state subsidizes between 318 and 500 Egyptian pounds for each consumption category. He also explained that the ministry has invested approximately 4 trillion pounds to ensure the stability of the electricity system and that it is currently committed not to reduce loads, supported by a subsidy system and a 24-hour team working to handle outages.
