To help enterprises resume production, State Grid Tibet Electric Power Company expects to reduce electricity charges by 59 million yuan

In order to fully support the orderly resumption of work and production of Tibetan enterprises, State Grid Tibet Electric Power Co., Ltd. has introduced a phased policy to reduce electricity costs. It is expected to reduce electricity costs for 24,000 enterprises in the Tibet Autonomous Region and exempt electricity charges by about 59 million yuan.

The implementation period for this phased reduction in electricity costs is from February 1 to June 30. Except for high-energy-consuming industries, electricity users who are currently implementing industrial, commercial and other electricity prices will be charged at 95% of the original household electricity price level.

The reporter learned that the discounts for this phased reduction in electricity costs will be borne entirely by State Grid Tibet Electric Power Co., Ltd., and will not be passed on to upstream companies such as power generation companies. The discounts on electricity bills incurred in February 2020 will be deducted from each household when paying electricity bills in March, and the discounts from March to June will be directly deducted when paying electricity bills in the same month.

In order to ensure that the phased reduction of corporate electricity costs is implemented at the household level, State Grid Tibet Electric Power will automatically identify and determine the scope of cost reduction based on the business scope in the customer's registered business license. At the same time, it will actively cooperate with relevant government departments to clean up and standardize unreasonable price increases in the power supply transfer link, and strive to pass on the benefits of the electricity fee reduction policy to terminal power customers.

State Grid Tibet Electric Power Co., Ltd. will also publicize the relevant policies on the phased reduction of electricity costs to customers through online and offline channels such as posting announcements in business halls, "Online State Grid", State Grid Tibet Electric Power WeChat public account, 95598 website, etc., strengthen the monitoring of the implementation of the phased reduction of corporate costs, respond to electricity customer inquiries, promptly resolve questions and suggestions on policy implementation, ensure the implementation of corporate cost reduction policies and measures, and help Tibetan enterprises resume work and production.
