How to determine the electricity price in case the buyer uses electricity for multiple purposes in Vietnam?
Pursuant to Clause 2 Article 3 of the Circular 16/2014/TT-BCT (amended by Clause 1 Article 1 of the Circular 25/2018/TT-BCT), in case the buyer uses electricity for multiple purposes, the electricity price shall be determined as follows:
- As for customers who register one electric meter for domestic purpose but use part of the amount of electricity from such meter for other purposes (production, business and services…), retail price for domestic purpose shall be applied for all the amount of electric energy measured by such meter;
- As for customers who register one electric meter for purposes other than domestic purpose (hereinafter referred to as non-domestic purposes), the two sides shall negotiate the proportion of electricity used for each using purpose in reliance on real-life usage.
- With regard to an urban area or a multistory building of which houses and apartments have been transferred to clients but the electrical grid is not yet transferred to the competent electricity agency because of failure to complete property statement procedures:
Pending the transfer of the electrical grid and electric consumption by clients, the buyer and the seller shall, based on the actual consumption of electricity, carry out an agreement on the amount of electricity to which the retail price for domestic purpose is applied and the amount of electricity to which the retail price for non-domestic purposes (such as production, business, service provision, etc.) is applied; this agreement shall be used as the basis for application of electricity prices.
The price of electricity used for domestic purpose shall be applied to total amount of electricity used by the buyer which is determined by the amount of electricity of each level multiplied by the number of households using electricity for domestic purpose (based on actual purposes of electricity consumption, apartment sales agreement, record of apartment transfer, family register, temporary residence register or document certifying registered temporary residence granted by local police agency).
