The Ministry of Environment and Energy recently announced the continuation of measures to support citizens in terms of subsidies for electricity bills, as stated on 10/23 by government spokesman Pavlos Marinakis.
In particular, as regards November, subsidies for electricity in residential tariffs, as well as for all basic and non-core housing services, without income criterion and regardless of supplier, are structured as follows:
- For monthly consumption up to 500 kWh, the subsidy increases compared to the previous month and amounts to 25 euros/MWh. This category covers 90% of Greek households.
- Those with monthly consumption exceeding 500 kWh will receive the same support provided they reduce their average daily energy consumption by 15% compared to the corresponding last year.
- For households included in the social household tariff (SOT), the subsidy is 60 EUR/MWh of total consumption and covers 100% of the increased costs.
- In addition, for farmers, regardless of power supply capacity and voltage level, assistance increases compared to the previous month and amounts to 25 euros/MWh for all monthly consumption.
The total budget for supporting the electricity supply of households and farmers in November exceeded 32.2 million euros.
