Electricity bills are particularly expensive in December? Response from Shanghai Electric Power staff

Recently, many netizens posted their electricity bills for December, and reported that the bills far exceeded expectations, more than doubling compared to last month. Some netizens posted bills that even exceeded 1,000 yuan, and some netizens wondered if the electricity price had risen. On the evening of January 5, relevant staff of the State Grid Shanghai Electric Power Co., Ltd. stated that there was no adjustment in the electricity price for the daily use of Shanghai residents. Residents’ electricity bills were high in December last year, most likely due to the increase in electricity consumption at the end of the year, reaching the third gear, and the third gear has a higher unit price. | Related reading (The Paper)

Regarding the situation reported by Shanghai residents that the price of electricity this year is much more expensive than last year, the response in the article is quite detailed. Among them are the reasons for the cooling in winter and the frequent use of electrical appliances. In the peak period, everyone is staying at home to recuperate from illness, and part of the reason is the adjustment of the tiered electricity price.

However, everyone’s question may be that even if it is a tiered electricity price, which is a full 1,000 yuan more than last year, it is reasonable for everyone to suspect that the electricity price has risen. After all, last year there were frequent limited and power shortages, and everyone knows that the energy situation has been relatively tight in recent years.
