Uganda has maintained the trend it started in 2020, to lower the electricity tariff in a bid to meet its industrialisation targets and offer its manufacturers a competitive price.
For the April-June quarter, the Electricity Regulatory Authority (ERA) issued a tariff reduction of 1.44 percent, on the basis of a positive growth in demand for electricity between January and March, compared with the last quarter of 2021. The reduction translates to Ush6.7 for every unit of electricity consumed across consumer categories of domestic, commercial and industrial users categorised as large and extra-large consumers.
