The Government of Moldova will increase the amount of compensation for heat energy for the population connected to the centralized heating system.
This was stated by Prime Minister Natalia Gavrilita at a press conference on Tuesday. She noted that, in particular, the authorities decided to compensate them not for 67% of the difference between the new and old tariff, but for 80%. In addition, compensation will cover not one, the first gigacalorie of heat consumed, but one and a half - 1.5 Gcal of heat. According to the prime minister, this will lead to the fact that from January the maximum amount of compensation paid by the government for heat energy for the population connected to the centralized heating system will increase from 450 to 815 lei per month. Natalia Gavrilita noted that it was decided to increase the amount of compensation for heat for the population, since 210 thousand consumers are connected to the centralized heating system in Chisinau and Balti, who live mainly in old houses, and these are mainly pensioners who cannot regulate consumption, reduce the temperature of the coolant, turn it off day or night, as owners of autonomous heating do. And since the heat costs of such citizens have increased significantly, the authorities decided to increase the amount of compensation for heat energy for them from January. // 18.01.2022- InfoMarket.
