The 3-month forward fuel oil price has dropped significantly over the last month. Hence, as the Prime Minister mentioned yesterday, we can expect a reduction in the electricity tariff for the coming quarter of January to March 2009. Besides fuel costs, the electricity tariff also includes non-fuel costs of generation; transmission and distribution costs; and miscellaneous fees like meter reading and billing. The exact tariff will be known in the first week of December, after these components are computed and finalized.
