Big rise in January


The minister, Miguel Sebastian said that the rise of 9.8% in the TUR in January was "exceptional, inevitable and necessary." In this context, Sebastian has ruled that the tariff electricity will rise again in the quarterly reviews of this year.

The energy bill, which pay more than 20 million customers, suffered in January, the biggest increase since 1983, due to the need to control the tariff deficit, which has persisted since 2000 and which closed the year at a 20,000 million euros, equivalent to two points of GDP.
