Today, a number of information resources have once again disseminated information about the alleged preparation by the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine to increase electricity tariffs. We would like to inform you that: there is currently no preparation, discussion, or calculation of a potential increase. All statements in this regard are fake, aimed at destabilizing public sentiment
The ministry emphasized that "at present, the efforts of all the country's energy companies, whose activities are coordinated by the Ministry of Energy, are aimed at successfully completing the heating season and starting equally thorough preparations for the next one.
"It should be noted that despite all the enemy's attempts and statements by pseudo-experts, Ukrainians went through this winter without large-scale blackouts, with electricity and heat. The negative scenarios spread by various sources did not materialize. The Ministry of Energy of Ukraine has repeatedly officially emphasized this fact," the Ministry of Energy said.
