Electricity suppliers in Greece have announced a new wave of price cuts for April. The Greek electricity company PPC, the leading player in the market, leads the way with a price reduction, which is greater than expected and amounts to 16 percent.
PPC set the price for April at 16.5 cents per kWh for monthly consumption of up to 500 KWh, down from 19.5 cents per KWh for March. For consumption above this threshold, the price is 17.7 cents per KWh, down from 20.7 cents per KWh in March.
Based on a recently adopted law, electricity sellers in Greece must publish tariffs for the following month by the 20th of the current month.
