December 30, Colombo (LNW): The Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) has confirmed that the final decision on the much-awaited electricity tariff revision will be disclosed on January 17, 2025.
This follows an ongoing process to gather feedback from the public, which is being considered in the formulation of the new pricing structure.
At present, consultations are taking place across the country to ensure that the views of the public are thoroughly considered. The Commission has already commenced this process, with today’s session focused on collecting feedback from residents in the Uva Province.
From January 03, onwards, public consultations will expand to include other provinces, offering an opportunity for citizens nationwide to express their concerns and suggestions regarding the proposed tariff changes.
The PUCSL has stressed that these public consultations are a crucial part of the decision-making process, aimed at ensuring that the final tariff revision is both fair and sustainable for all stakeholders, including consumers and the electricity service providers.
Whilst the full details of the tariff revision remain under discussion, the Commission has reassured the public that the final decision will be officially announced on December 17, 2025.
