Back down the electricity bill, while there was an increase to the utility bill gas in conjunction with the normal seasonality of the autumn, however, less marked than what might be expected. According to the terms established by the Authority for Energy, in the usual decision on a quarterly basis, from the first of October, the electricity bill will decrease by 1.1%, while for gas the increase will be 1.7%. In the complex in 2016, the typical family will save 96 euro. “It’s a case that the increase in rates to occur in the period in which, because of climatic conditions, also increase the consumption of gas?- you ask Federconsumatori – Almost certainly no. It is even probable that it is a signal, which proves the existence of an intolerable speculative mechanism to the detriment of consumers”.
1532 euros a year
But now, if the bill of the methane is about to go up, especially for a seasonal effect, is to say that in the course of the last nine months has been the one that fell the most, allowing the most savings for consumers. In detail, in fact, for electricity, the expense for this family type in 2016 will be at the end of 499 euro, with a decrease of 1.1% compared to the equivalent 12-month of the previous year (1 January 2015 – 31 December 2015), corresponding to a saving of 5 euro. For the gas expenditure of the family type in the same period will be approximately 1.033 euro, but in this case, for an overall reduction of 8.1%, corresponding to a saving of 91 euro compared to the previous year. In total, therefore, the family type for electricity and gas in 2016, will spend 96 euro less than what is spent in 2015.
Because it drops your electric bill
In the fourth quarter of 2016 – says the Italian Energy Authority – the performance of the price of electricity is determined primarily by a decline in the component covering supply costs on the wholesale markets, in part offset by the increase in costs to the general system charges. In the three months prior to the increase of 4.3% was linked to an increase in costs for the “dispatching”, i.e. those costs that Terna, the operator of the network, argues for maintaining the balance and safety of the electrical system. After a report of Confindustria, the Authority has opened an investigation “to bring to an end and to pursue the possible anomalous of the past months held by the operators of the supply and demand in electricity wholesale markets”. Just as a result of this decision, pending the end of the investigation that could bring damages to consumers, it has registered the first drop in the electric bill. In recent months, the administrative judges have first locked the rate increases of July and then have admitted, by imposing, however, to the Authority of the Energy, in the expectation of an intervention on the merits scheduled for February, to create a fund for any refunds. A battle that We are taking forward with firmness: “we Want to know the names of those who have speculated on the shoulders of the families, and we are still waiting for from the Authorities the decision to introduce the mechanism of automatic refund to the users provided for by the regional administrative court of Lombardia, which is absolutely essential if in the next bill to be introduced increases of July”.
