The Fijian Competition & Consumer Commission (FCCC) is requesting stakeholders to make submissions on whether to extend, vary, or revoke the price control order on electricity charges.
The order was imposed in 2022.
“In line with FCCC’s commitment to transparency and inclusivity, we invite members of the public, industry stakeholders, and all interested parties to submit their views, comments, and suggestions on the regulation of electricity,” states FCCC in a public notice.
“Based on the findings, FCCC would then make appropriate recommendations to the Minister pursuant to Section 40 of the FCCC Act 2010 on whether the Order should be extended, varied, or revoked.”
Energy Fiji Limited has been pursuing an increase in electricity charges to implement its 10-year Power Development Plan, which is estimated at $4.3billion.
EFL had submitted its electricity tariff proposal to the Fijian Competition and Consumer Commission (FCCC) in August 2022.
