The Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC) has announced a 1.14 percent upward adjustment in electricity tariffs for all consumer categories, effective October 1, 2025.

In its latest review, the Commission said the adjustment was necessary to ensure the sustainability of power supply and to balance the interests of consumers and utility service providers.

While electricity tariffs will go up, the PURC confirmed that water tariffs will remain unchanged for the same period.

 

The Commission assured the public that it remains committed to protecting consumers while ensuring that utility providers recover costs required to maintain and improve essential services.
