We have today approved the gas network tariffs for 2024/25 for Gas Networks Ireland (GNI). All the estimated 720,000 gas customers pay network charges through bills received from their gas suppliers. Network charges form an amount of the standing charge on gas customers’ bills. Distribution network tariffs for 2024/25 are set to increase when compared to the current gas tariffs for 2023/24. A key factor contributing to this increase, is the inflation only increase applied to the 2023/24 distribution network tariffs. For the 2024/25 tariff year, based on projected gas demand, GNI predicts an increase of €2.75 per month with a CRU estimated ceiling of €4.98 per month based on the average residential gas customer’s annual bill. Commissioner with responsibility for Energy Networks Fergal Mulligan said: “In order to ensure the security and decarbonisation of Ireland’s energy supplies over the next number of years, it is essential that GNI continues to invest in the gas network. GNI’s plans are to ensure that it delivers this in as an efficient as possible and to minimise the impact for customers, while ensuring that there is a safe and secure supply of gas to meet demand.” Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/eatWDzpb
