In particular, the price can be decreased through the energy efficiency reform. The gas price in Ukraine can decrease through the introduction of gas market and the energy efficiency reform, Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Regional Development, Construction, Housing and Utilities Gennady Zubko said today, during the question hour in the Verkhovna Rada, Finance.ua reports.
“The first option is to introduce the gas market, because today, there is one monopoly company and 15 million Ukrainian households, to which virtually only one company supplies gas”, Zubko said.
According to him, the other option for decreasing the gas prices is the implementation of energy efficiency reform. It should be reminded that the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine prolonged until 2017 the program of partial compensation for the heating modernization loan and the improvement of the energy efficiency of residential properties.
