Media Center of Egypt’s cabinet denied that electricity prices for households are set according to the area in which the unit is located. There were reports that the Egyptian government was looking to determine the prices of electricity based on the residential unit’s location. This was scotched by the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy. It clarified that the actual consumption of citizens is calculated according to the price of a certain consumption segment, regardless of the area in which the residential unit is located.
The unified reading program that the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy had recently applied to record the consumption has been a success and eliminated the inaccurate reading of electricity consumption based on the consumption average. The ministry is also working towards ensuring uninterrupted power supply bereft of outages.
