Chitchat Electricity Tariff Up by 6.4% In 3rd Quarter 2019! John Tan Not Affected Thanks To Fixed Rate Offered By High Quality Electricity Retailers!

[JohnTan]

SINGAPORE: The electricity tariff for households will increase in the July to September period to their highest rate in nearly five years.

The increase of 6.4 per cent, or 1.43 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), from the previous quarter is mainly due to the higher cost of natural gas for electricity generation, SP Group said on Saturday (Jun 29).

For households, the electricity tariff will rise from 22.79 to 24.22 cents per kWh, excluding Goods and Services Tax (GST), from Jul 1 to Sep 30. This means that the average monthly electricity bill for families living in four-room Housing Board flats will increase by S$5.20.

This is the highest the electricity tariff has been since the October to December period in 2014, when it was at 25.28 cents per kWh, excluding GST.

Eventually Sinkieland will switch to nuclear power for energy. Especially when the population edges closer and closer to 10mil.

Maybe a consortium of SPH-SMRT-Hyflux will make it happen.
