Reasons for the increase in heating and hot water tariffs in Uzbekistan have been named

In Uzbekistan, changes to energy tariffs were discussed: the monthly social electricity norm in non-gasified areas during the heating season will be raised from 200 to 350 kWh, and the price within 201-350 kWh will be reduced from 900 to 650 sums per kWh. From November 1, heating and hot water tariffs will rise by 30%, although the cost of services is 4 times higher than the tariffs. Needy families will receive one-time assistance of 1 million sums, covering over 1 million 17 thousand households. Compensation for electricity and gas consumption above basic norms is extended until April 1, 2028, covering an additional 166 thousand families. A compensation of 3 thousand sums per kilogram of liquefied gas is proposed for Social Register families, and 240 billion sums will be allocated to improve the energy efficiency of 3 thousand houses.
