According to a 2022 Jogorku Kenesh resolution, for multi-story buildings using electricity exclusively for heating, the tariff should not increase for consumption exceeding 700 kWh. However, the current government tariff policy does not account for this consumer category.
Regulatory Gap
According to Salavat Sadyrakunov, the government has approved a medium-term tariff policy until 2030, which sets fixed rates based on consumption volume. This tariff policy was not coordinated with the Jogorku Kenesh.
| Indicator | Before | After | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tariff up to 700 kWh | 1,64 som | 1,64 som | 0% |
| Tariff over 700 kWh | 2,94 som | 2,94 som | 0% |
Ulan Sariyev, a deputy of the VIII convocation, pointed out the contradiction between documents of different levels. He noted that the discrepancy between the Jogorku Kenesh resolution and the government resolution creates legal uncertainty regarding which document must be followed.
Technical Parameters
Despite the tariff disagreements, technical capacities for such buildings have been expanded. By order of National Electric Grid, the power limit for electric-heated buildings was increased from 5 to 7 kW.
The agency has committed to providing the exact number of such buildings in writing.
