During the war, Ukraine has a moratorium on increasing gas tariffs for the population. The Naftogaz of Ukraine company supports this ban and promises not to increase natural gas prices for plaintiffs during the winter period.
This was announced by the Chairman of NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine Alexey Chernyshev during the United News telethon.
He noted that the current moratorium on increasing gas tariffs is an objective restriction during martial law; accordingly, gas prices for the population for the winter of 2023-2024 will be stable.

After the end of the war, the company plans to intensify energy efficiency measures and the development of the energy market in Ukraine.
— We expect that when such an opportunity arises, we will even more actively stimulate energy efficient measures, as well as introduce an energy market in our country. Of course, this is possible after the end of the war, — added the head of NAC.
