Save electricity to reduce pressure on prices

High pressure in electricity invoices

According to this decision, the impact of the price adjustment of electricity on households that use electricity for daily life (which currently follow the six -level price list and consume at normal levels) will increase by approximately 4,550 – 65,050 VND per home per month.

Of these, the group of clients that uses between 101 KWh and 200 KWh (which represents 32.79% of households, currently the largest group of clients), the increase in the electricity bill is approximately 20,150 vnd/home/month. For the group of clients that use electricity from 201 KWh to 300 kWh (representing 19.33% of electricity customers), the increase in the electricity invoice is approximately 33,950 vnd/home/month. For customers who use between 301 and 400 kWh of electricity (representing approximately 9.89% of electricity customers), the increase in electricity invoice is approximately 49,250 vnd/home/month. For customers who use 400 kWh or more electricity (representing approximately 13.45% of electricity customers), the increase in electricity invoice is approximately 65,050 vnd/home/month. However, we are currently in the middle of the heat season and the demand for electricity for cooling is increasing, especially of air conditioners and refrigerators that consume a lot of electricity; If they are not used properly, the electricity bill will increase.

Mrs. Bui Thi Nham (Ha Dong) said that her family spends almost 1 million VND in electricity every month and that in summer the electricity bill also increases due to the use of fans and air conditioners. With this increase, electricity consumption is also expected to increase strongly, in about 400 kWh. According to information from the electricity industry, your home will have to pay 65,050 additional Vnd per household per month. Mrs. Nham said that electricity is still calculated according to the peak and valley hours, so the additional payment will be known in June and July. “The increase in electricity in early summer will force my family to consider the use of appliances. In fact, the electrical industry states that the maximum increase for households with high electricity consumption is more than 65,000 VND per month, but consumers will have to pay more, so we need to save more electricity,” said Mrs. Nham.

Similarly, Mrs. Nguyen Mai (Thanh Xuan) also said that electricity prices increase at the beginning of the heat season, households use more electricity, it is important to highlight that the increase in household electricity prices also means that many costs and items also tend to increase. The increase in electricity prices is inevitable. Consumers also sympathized with EVN when it was reported that electricity prices would adjust every three months, but now six months have passed and EVN has announced an increase of 4.8 %. However, from the consumer’s perspective, I just hope to have enough electricity to guarantee an adequate supply, since heat and light cuts will affect people’s lives. In addition, use electricity in moderation and adjust the consumption properly when buying and using the electrical appliances at home, “Sra. Mai shared.

For many homes living in departments, most appliances use electricity for cooking, washing machines, dryers, dishwasher, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc. While maintenance expenses increase and income decreases, many homes have limited the use of appliances to save electricity. Mrs. Nguyen Nga (long) said that when the weather began to heat up, her family got rid of the dishwasher and, although they have young children, limited the use of the dryer; Unnecessary electrical equipment, such as bulbs, and fans in air conditioning rooms should also be limited.

From the perspective of agricultural companies that use a lot of electricity for production, Mr. Le Trong Dung, director of NGOC LINH are the vegetable and fruit trading company Limited, said that farmers in the northwest region at the dry season use 100% electricity to pump water, consequently, up to 8 months a year use 100% electricity for irrigation. Currently, on average, a hectare of land depends on electricity for irrigation, which costs around 6 to 7 million VND per month. Now that the price of electricity has increased, each hectare of production will cost between 7 and 8 million. When electricity prices rise, also production costs, while agricultural production depends on the season and weather. during this time, agricultural products are quite cheap, people barely earn enough to cover their expenses and work in exchange for nothing. In the current context, it is necessary to try to maintain production, minimize costs proactively, consume electricity and save it, said Mr. Dung.

As an important electricity consumer, Mr. Nguyen Van Dat, deputy director of the Thai Nguyen electrolyte factory, also said that what companies want most is not to use cheap electricity, but to use a stable electricity source, at a reasonable price, according to market mechanisms and guarantee quality. For manufacturing companies, especially in the heavy industry sector, continuous, uninterrupted and good quality energy supply is a key factor, which provides many benefits to production. When a cutting or interruption of the electricity supply occurs, companies not only suffer from material damage but also have an important impact on commercial production and activities in general.

The economic use of electricity is a very important solution.

To save electricity, Mr. Nguyen Van Dat said that in recent years, the company has invited highly qualified and capable units to perform electrical audits, evaluating and thus proposing energy savings solutions for the company. At the same time, his company also updated and renewed the production lines, improved the productivity and performance of the equipment, applied technology and science, changed the equipment with better energy saving capabilities to increase the economic growth of the company, but at the same time maintained the quality of the product.

As one of the seven representatives of ministries, branches and socio -political organizations that participated in the inspection of electricity production and commercial costs in recent years, Mr. Bui Thanh Thuy, vice president and general secretary of the Vietnam Association for consumer protection, said that throughout the years of participation in the inspection, it has been shown that the prices of electricity have been correctly inspected. Enough, objective and transparent.

According to Mr. Thuy, the increase in electricity prices is inevitable in current conditions, but the only thing is that the increase in electricity prices must have a road map and appropriate measures. In addition, each specific moment must be taken into account to increase prices. Although this increase in the price of electricity occurs at the beginning of the heat season, consumers may feel the pressure of the increase in electricity invoices, but in reality, the price of electricity has only increased from last year to this year, although according to government regulations, electricity prices will be adjusted once every 3 months. Therefore, saving electricity is extremely necessary. Vietnam’s growth objective is 8% this year and the following years could be two digits, so the electricity industry must increase to 12-13%. Therefore, “with the load of the electricity sector, more than ever, consumers must use electricity safely, economically and efficiently. When buying any electrical equipment, it is necessary Mr. Thuy.

The deputy director of the Department of Electricity (Ministry of Industry and Commerce), Doan Ngoc Duong, also said that increasing electricity savings is one of the important solutions to contribute to guaranteeing electricity, especially during the peak of the heat season, when the demand for electricity increases. Increase electricity savings. This is also one of the most important solutions. Saving electricity also implies reducing demand, especially during peak hours. In addition, we have a series of regulations and sanctions that demand greater savings of electricity in production, companies and consumption, especially during peak hours, said Mr. Duong.
