According to him, an increase in gas prices for the population could have been avoided if domestic production increased.

“But if our own production had been increased and the level of energy efficiency had been increased, then the price of gas would not have risen, but dropped ... That's how we pay for incompetence and corruption,” he wrote.

Earlier it was reported that Naftogaz increased the price of gas for the population in January 2020 to 5500 hryvnias per thousand cubic meters in the framework of the JI (excluding VAT, gas sales margins and transportation costs).

Prior to this, the company indicated that in December 2019, the price of gas for the population would be 4,277 hryvnias per thousand cubic meters as part of the PSO.
