Borders and Last Resource Supply Tariff in 2026

LIMITS AND LAST RESOURCE SUPPLY TARIFF IN 2026

One of the most important factors to consider when investigating the cause of the increase in the bill is the type of electricity tariff.

According to the rules determined by the Energy Market Regulatory Authority, the Last Resource Supply Tariff limit for residential subscribers is determined as 4 thousand kWh annually. Subscribers whose consumption exceeds this limit in the current calendar year or the previous year and who have not made any bilateral agreements may be charged this tariff if the conditions are met.

According to official data, the average consumption across the country is well below this limit and the majority of subscribers are not affected by the regulation. However, it is recommended to check this criterion as there may be changes in unit prices in cases exceeding the annual consumption limit.

IN WHICH CASES CAN AN ELECTRICITY BILL BE OBJECTED?

According to legal regulations, some disruptions are considered direct billing errors. If you think your invoice contains one of these situations, you have the legal right to object:

Incorrect or incomplete reading of meter indexes

Application of the wrong tariff to the subscriber

Mathematically incorrect calculation of the amount of consumption

Multiplication of consumption cost by incorrect rates

Notifying duplicate (double) payments for the same period

When such errors are encountered, an official application can be made to the relevant electricity supply company that issued the invoice.
