Electricity Tariffs May Rise for Heavy Consumers in Summer

The Energy Ministry’s proposal to increase electricity tariffs for heavy consumers has been approved by the Majlis special commissions and if ratified by the government, it will come into effect next year, a deputy energy minister said.
According to the Persian daily Donya-e-Eqtesad, Mahmoud Reza Haqifam says the rise in tariffs would start from the last month of spring and continue throughout summer when consumption rises phenomenally.
