In order to reduce the impact of increase in the price of energy resources, the government has decided to compensate the increase in the price of natural gas not only for residents, but also for consumers in buildings where the contract with the natural gas trader is held by the building manager or another legal entity. The state aid can be received by the owner, manager, project developer of multi-apartment residential buildings, terraced houses, where natural gas is used by households within the framework of mutual contractual obligations.

Despite the current insufficiency of natural gas in the Inčukalns Underground Gas Storage Facility and limited options of gas supply, the JSC “Latvijas Gāze” as the Public trader and a socially responsible commercial enterprise continues working on solutions for ensuring gas supply to captive consumers in the 2022/2023 heating season.

The JSC “Latvijas Gāze” reiterates that the natural gas quantity available in the Inčukalns Underground Gas Storage Facility as at the date of publishing this statement is 0,45 TWh.
