Meanwhile, the new prices took effect on October 7 at 11:30. They will remain in place until the Board’s next meeting. The Board will review market developments and set new prices at that meeting.

The Board warned wholesale and retail operators to comply with the decision. Authorities may suspend operators that violate the rules. The Economy and Innovation Ministry, Finance Ministry, and Infrastructure and Energy Ministry said they remain committed to protecting consumers and fair competition.
