The National Energy Policy Council (NEPC) has resolved to ask national oil and gas conglomerate PTT Plc to allocate 6 billion baht to help the government cap the increasing power tariff, part of efforts to slow the surge in electricity bills.
The resolution was announced yesterday by Energy Minister Supattanapong Punmeechaow after the NEPC met to find ways to relieve people's financial burdens, exacerbated by higher electricity prices next year.
