Communal will rise more expensive than before: the date of a new increase is called

The next large-scale indexation of utility tariffs is scheduled for July 1, 2027. And the news is not very rosy: the Agency increased the forecast of average growth of payments in the country from 8.7% to 11%.

The reason for the revision lies in the updated data on inflation, changes in the cost of energy carriers, as well as the need to allocate additional funds for the modernization of worn-out utility networks.

The numbers speak for themselves. If now your average receipt is 8000 rubles, then after the increase it will grow by about 880 rubles. When paying 12,000 rubles, the monthly overpayment will be already 1,320 rubles.

According to the new forecasts, growth will be uneven:

Electricity: tariffs for the population may rise by 14.4% (the most noticeable jump).

Gas: expected indexation of 10.4%.

• Heating: +10.2%.

Water supply and sanitation: about 9-9.4%.

11% is only the national average. There is no single tariff for everyone. Specific figures will be approved by the regional authorities. In some municipalities, growth may be higher than the declared index if large infrastructure projects are implemented there.

According to preliminary estimates of the Ministry of Economic Development, in 2028 the communal will grow by 8.6%, and in 2029 - by 7.6%.

There is still time until the summer of 2027. Experts advise you to pay attention to the consumption of resources: the total amount in the receipt will depend not only on the new prices, but also on how much water and electricity you actually consumed.
