Egat to cut tariffs for poor, SMEs
The state-run Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (Egat) has been ordered to reduce power tariffs for low-income earners and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to help with their living and operating costs, says Deputy Prime Minister Somkid Jatusripitak.
Mr Somkid visited Egat on Thursday and met with the state enterprise’s executives.
He pointed out Egat should have a role in helping less capable groups and should work with related agencies to adjust power tariffs.
