In the wake of the energy crisis across Europe, the government has decided to compensate for the increase in the price of natural gas for citizens with annual natural gas consumption above 250 m3. Compensation will be applied for the period from January to the end of April 2022. Households do not need to apply for state aid; the reduced fee will be included in the billing documents automatically in accordance with the amount determined by the state.
From 1 January 2022, the increase in the price of natural gas for households purchasing natural gas at the regulated tariff will be significantly lower than the increase in the total price of natural gas in the market.
The net turnover of the Group reached EUR 281.2 million in the nine months of 2021, which is 113 % more than in the corresponding period in 2020.
JSC Latvijas Gāze has concluded amendments to the existing overdraft agreement with OP Corporate Bank plc.
In the first half of 2021, the net turnover of the Group reached EUR 154.3 million, which is 56% more than in the corresponding period in 2020, while the net profit of the Group in the first six months of 2021 is EUR 5.4 million.
