The Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) announced yesterday that on Oct. 1 electricity prices will increase by 7-10 % for households using 1,001 kWh or additional per month and by 0-8 % for businesses using 1,501 kWh or additional.
In the MOEA's revised pricing plan, there will be no rise for households using 500 kWh or less per month. As a result, 85.7 % of households will not be affected by the price changes.
With the new plan, households that use between 501 kWh and 700 kWh will have to pay an additional NT$47 to NT$94 per month, while households that use between 701 kWh and 1,000 kWh will pay additional NT$147 to NT$253, and households that use 1,001 kWh or additional will pay an additional NT$253 or additional.
