Galushchenko answered the question about raising electricity tariffs:

"This issue is being considered, today we are making final calculations, the decision will be made in the coming week, that is, by the end of May,".

According to him, the level of current tariffs, taking into account the losses of the power system, is not able to cover the cost of electricity production.

We are currently considering a differentiated approach. I do not think that one tariff will be changed for another - there will be differentiation depending on the volume of electricity consumption

- Galushchenko noted.
