Good news will affect millions of people. In fact, EDF announces a 14% drop in electricity prices.
A field in constant variation
The energy sector continues to undergo various changes. And this is because of external and internal factors.
But good news is to be expected for millions of French people. And this, because the EDF company informed a 14% reduction in the price of electricity.
In this way, it must be understood that this area has already experienced variations in its cost. All due to measures taken by the government.
So, increases and reductions have already been effective during the year 2024. This has caused various concerns, in some cases, for millions of citizens.
Furthermore, the first estimates for 2025 look bad. Indeed, an increase seems to be expected, which is not a good thing.
However, the EDF company has just announced big news for millions of citizens. And this, in particular by mentioning a 14% drop in electricity prices in the near future.
Good news on electricity prices according to EDF
The energy sector continues to undergo various changes in recent times. And this is because of external and internal factors.
But according to information provided by EDF, a drop in the amounts is expected in the near future. And this last would be 14% according to this company.
In this way, it must be understood that the tariff shield, put in place two years ago, will end in February 2025. But the removal of this system will not lead to an increase in taxes.
However, according to an EDF press release taken up by our colleagues from Parisian, it will return to its pre-crisis level which was 33.70 eurosinstead of 22 euros currently.
Consequently, the expected drop will be 14% for the French taken into account in this element. Which, obviously, could bring a number of benefits.
Additional details
And it's a real relief, especially when we know that increases were planned for 2025. Indeed, with the aim of reducing the public deficit which is 3.4 billion euros, Barnier's government wanted to apply a reduction of only 9%.
In other words, it is a measure which would cause a rebound in the price of electricity supplied by EDF. Which would have triggered various financial concerns for citizens.
However, it must be understood that these are those who benefit from the regulated sales price who will have this drastic reduction. And on average, this corresponds to 56% of French men and women.
Through this, it will be possible to benefit from this significant financial advantage from February 1, 2025. And no need to specify that this will bring many benefits in these current times.
Indeed, with the inflation currently present, it's time to save money. And this good news from EDF is welcome.
Furthermore, other measures could emerge in the coming months. And it would be crucial to stay informed.
