Natural gas prices supplied by the SPP gas utility for households will increase by 34 to 59 percent from the beginning of next year, Economy Minister Richard Sulik said on Thursday during an extraordinary parliamentary meeting. As he added, the lower amount will be paid by customers who conclude a four-year contract with SPP from August to the end of the year, while the higher growth applies to households that have a one-year contract. The minister expects inflation to remain at the current level of around 12 percent over the next two to three years and it should fall to six percent at the end of the four-year contract period.
