Chisinau, 4 Aug. /MOLDPRES/- The Board of Directors of the National Agency for Energy Regulation (ANRE) approved today, in a public meeting, the new regulated prices for the supply of natural gas by Moldovagaz company. Thus, the price increased from 18.62 to 22.99 lei for a cubic meter, although Moldovagaz requested a price of 29.48 lei.
The prices were established by applying the weighted average annual purchase price of natural gas, in the amount of 899.08 dollars/1000 m3, as requested by Moldovagaz.
When determining the price of natural gas supplied by the license holder, the following parameters were taken into account: the increase in the average annual procurement price of natural gas from $696.0/1000 m3 to $899.08/1000 m3 (by +29.2 %); the evolution of the average annual exchange rate of the national currency against the US dollar forecast for 2022, estimated at 18.58 lei/dollar compared to the average annual exchange rate of 18.33 lei/dollar included in the current price (with + 1.3%).
Thus, ANRE approved the following regulated prices for natural gas (without VAT): entry into natural gas transport networks – 18,819 lei/1000 m3; exit from natural gas transport networks – 19,066 lei/1000 m3; exit from high-pressure natural gas distribution networks – 19,317 lei/1000 m3; exit from medium-pressure natural gas distribution networks – 19,654 lei/1000 m3; exit from low-pressure natural gas distribution networks – 21,296 lei/1000 m3.
In relation to the request of Moldovagaz, ANRE reduced the costs of supplying natural gas to final consumers by a total of 3,559.6 million lei or about 6 lei/m3.
The new prices will enter into force on the date of publication in the Official Journal.
