My latest bill is RM236.68, based on 875 kWh used. With the new tariff, I will have to fork out an additional RM56.17, that’s 23.53%. How about you? What’s your damage like?
KUALA LUMPUR: Consumers in Peninsular Malaysia will have to be more prudent in their spending when the new electricity tariff takes effect today.
Under the new tariff, domestic users will be eligible for the existing rate of 21.8 sen/kWh if their monthly usage does not exceed 200 kilowatt hour (kWh).
However, for usage of between 201 kWh and 400 kWh, they will have to pay 34.5 sen per kWh unit.
The rate will increase on subsequent 100 kWh — 30 sen for 401-500 kWh, 39 sen (501-600 kWh), 40 sen (601-700 kWh), 41 sen (701-800 kWh) and 43 sen (801-900 kWh).
A maximum rate of 46 sen will be charged for each kWh when electricity usage reaches 901 kWh and above. — Bernama
