- We are starting to make deductions on the bills that come in May.

If the support is greater than the amount on the bill, the remaining amount will be deducted from future invoices until the customer has received the full support, says David Jakobsson, development engineer at Gävle Energi in a press release.

The county's largest electricity network supplier Ellevio has already started paying the support to its customers on the invoice for April.

At Söderhamn Nära, it is hoped to be able to start making deductions in May.

The compensation that is now paid out applies to December 2021 and January and February 2022. The government has also proposed that customers in electricity area 4 and electricity area 3, where Gävle Energi's electricity network customers are included, be compensated for high electricity prices in March.

In Hälsingland, it belongs to electricity area 2 and where electricity customers are compensated for December to February.
