A new annual plan will protect household consumers from price spikes during the next heating season, according to Naftogaz, Ukraine’s largest oil and gas company.
Naftogaz will create a fixed-rate gas payment plan in April that protects household consumers from seasonal spikes in gas prices during the next heating season, the country’s leading gas producer announced on March 25.
Under the new plan, gas prices will remain fixed throughout the year and consumers’ bills will only vary based on how much gas they used. All customers will be transitioned to the fixed-rate annual plan by default starting in May. All gas supply companies will offer an annual fixed-rate payment plan, according to Naftogaz.
