This is reported by First Business
The new gas season officially begins in Ukraine on 1 May. Suppliers are setting prices within the framework of annual tariff plans, which will remain in force until 30 April 2027.
Key figures: Naftogaz and others
For the vast majority of domestic consumers (around 98% of households) who receive gas from the Naftogaz of Ukraine Group, there will be no changes. The company has confirmed that the price will remain at 7.96 UAH per cubic metre (including VAT).
