The Energy Regulation Commission (CRE) has just published its new benchmark price for September. And it’s down. Here are the expected impacts on your gas bill.
The regulated gas sales tariff (TRVG) already seems far away, 35 days after its disappearance. Consumers are already looking towards September to choose the best contract and can rely on the price listed by the Energy Regulation Commission for this.
This is CRE’s fourth publication after those of June, July and August. The last time, the news was not good since a rise in the price of the kilowatt hour was to be deplored.
The price represents, a compass for consumers
This referenced price should make it possible to inform residential consumers in the choice of their supplier following the end of the regulated tariffs. Like a reference rent, this rate aims to avoid excessively high offers. This indicative price is intended to serve as a compass for consumers who wish to compare supply offers from June 2023, explains CRE.
For September, here is the reasonable subscription amount and a reference kilowatt-hour price recommended by the organization chaired by Emmanuelle Wargon:
The price of a good commercial offer is 0.08218 euro per KWh (heating) and 0.10512 euro per KWh (hot water and cooking).
These tariffs are lower than those of August (0.08406 euro per KWh in heating and 0.10700 per KWh in hot water and cooking) but they remain higher than those of July (0.08195 euro per KWh and 0. 10488 euro per KWh).
Consequently, and as detailed in the table above, between August and September 2023, the variable part excluding taxes (HT) of a typical cooking/hot water and heating consumer decreases by 1.56/MWh, writes the CRE in his press release
A stable subscription
As for the annual subscription price, it has been stable for two months and complies with what the suppliers on the market currently offer. For a heating type customer, it costs 102.94 euros and 257.18 euros for a hot water and cooking contract.
