KUALA LUMPUR  – Some five million households are likely to be spared from an impending surcharge on electricity consumption that may come into effect next month.

According to a source familiar with the matter, it is understood that consumers with bills of less than RM77 per month, or with a monthly consumption of 300 kilowatt hour (kWh) and below, may not be subjected to the surcharge.

This pool of consumers, who are said to be mostly from the lower-income groups, is estimated to constitute about 70% of the 7.9 million of Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s (TNB) domestic consumer base.
