Regulated electricity rates increase by 4% at 1%er february 2022, this increase is capped under the « tariff shield » introduced by the government to curb the increase in bills for individuals and companies in the face of soaring electricity prices in Europe. Announced in September 2021, this 4% limit on the increase in regulated electricity rates is set out in several orders published in the Official Journal of 30 January 2022. This measure prevents individuals from experiencing a 35.4% increase on the 1er February 2022.
The energy tariff shield adopted in the 2022 budget law has capped at 4% The increase in regulated electricity rates that occurred on 1er February 2022.
The tariff shield is based on two actions:
- sharp reduction in the electricity tax, reduced to €1/MWh for households, €0.5for companies, against €25.83 before.
- increase in the volume of nuclear electricity sold at low cost by EDF to its competitors. Alternative suppliers will have to pass on this benefit in full to their customers with a fixed price contract, or indexed to the regulated tariffs.
Up to 1er in june 2022, regulated natural gas tariffs are frozen at the october 2021 tariffs. Without this decision, they would have increased by 38% TTC at 1er January 2022.
An exceptional energy check from €100 is also paid to low-income households, in addition to the energy check of €48 to €227 already assigned.
FYI : proposed by EDF and the local distribution companies, these regulated tariffs are set by the public authorities, following a proposal from the Commission for Energy Regulation (CRE), whose assessment is based on market prices.
Based on these prices, the CRE proposed an increase of 44.5% excluding taxes, i.e. + €57.22/MWh HT, for residential consumers (blue tariffs: base option, or full/off hours), and 44.7% tax-free for eligible professionals (+€59.22/MWh (HT).
Please note : as part of the law of 16 august 2022 on emergency measures for the protection of purchasing power, the government announced in september 2022 the extension in 2023 of the tariff shield to contain by 15% the planned increase on electricity, for households, small companies and small communes.
