Electricity Tariffs Have Increased in Georgia
Monday, 22 January, 2018

Since January 2018, electricity tariffs have increased in Georgia. The new tariffs were determined by the Georgian National Energy and Water Supply Regulatory Commission (GNERC) on December 27 2017 based on a review of applications submitted by the country’s distribution companies (JSI Telasi and Energo-Pro Georgia). In Tbilisi, the tariff has increased by 1.56 tetri per kWh and in regions by 1.28 Tetri per kWh. New tariffs for Energo Pro Georgia and JSC Telasi are as follows:

ENERGO PRO GEORGIA
Voltage Stage Old Tariff (Per kW/h) New Tariff (Per kW/h)
101 kW/h 12.95 14.23
101-301 kW/h 16.93 18.21
301 kW/h and more 21.45 22.7
JSC TELASI
Voltage Stage Old Tariff (Per kW/h) New Tariff (Per kW/h)
101 kW/h 12.98 14.54
101-301 kW/h 16.992 18.55
301 kW/h and more 21.476 23.03

According to the chairperson of GNERC, the main reason for the increase in utility fees was an increase in the investment costs of distribution companies associated with the need to satisfy increased demands for electricity, as well as the rehabilitation of existing transmission lines and the construction of new ones. The new tariffs will be in force from January 2018 to December 2020.
