Homeowners in Primorye are required to submit paperwork for the "lowest" utility rates
In the Primorsky Krai, private homeowners are urged to take immediate action regarding their electrical equipment documents to avoid potential electricity overpayments. Starting from December 1, 2025, homeowners who fail to provide the necessary documentation could face electricity bills that are up to 40% higher than the regular tariff.
This is not a new requirement but an alignment with current legislation. The procedure for confirming electrical equipment is designed to ensure safety and efficiency, particularly during the heating season. Many residents in the region may face serious financial difficulties if they lack the necessary documents.
The on-site inspection with an appropriate act will be conducted if the homeowner provides documents from points 6-9 of the list. These documents can be submitted by email, through the DÉK website's online reception, or in person at the company's client office.
For more detailed information, please visit the official DÉK website or contact the company's client offices. It's essential to note that this matter is not related to recent news articles such as "A Man of His Word: Primorye Says Farewell to Yuri Ivanovich Moskaltsov," "Happy Birthday to Governor Dmitry Demezhin of the Khabarovsk Krai," or any other unrelated news articles.
Residents who have already provided documents to DÉK confirming their residential home and electrical heating equipment will have "minimum" tariffs applied. On the contrary, without documentary confirmation, the calculation is switched from the "minimum" tariff to the regular one with stricter consumption ranges.
The situation of low activity in submitting documents may affect most private homeowners in the Primorsky Krai. According to recent statistics, out of 260,000 private homeowners in the region, only 14,000 submitted documents confirming the presence of electrical equipment in their homes during the first half of 2025. This means that over 245,000 homeowners are at risk of significantly overpaying for electricity starting this winter.
To confirm the right to the "minimum" tariff, one of nine specific documents is sufficient. Homeowners with electric heating and stoves can use an extended first consumption range of up to 7,020 kWh per month. However, without the necessary documentation, this extended range will not be applicable, leading to potentially higher bills.
Starting December 1, 2025, homeowners who haven't provided documents for their electrical equipment will be switched to higher tariffs with a year-end recalculation. This amount will be followed by a 2025 year-end recalculation, which could result in tens of thousands of additional expenses. For instance, a city private homeowner with an electric boiler who consumed 2,500 kWh but did not provide equipment documents will have to pay 16,718 rubles instead of 11,450 rubles from December 1, 2025.
In light of these potential financial implications, it is crucial for private homeowners in the Primorsky Krai to take action and submit their electrical equipment documents promptly to avoid unnecessary overpayments.
- Homeowners in the Primorsky Krai should submit their electrical equipment documents to avoid potential financial difficulties due to electricity overpayments, as the stricter consumption ranges without documentation could increase their bills significantly from December 1, 2025.
- The industry and finance of the region might be influenced by the low activity in submitting electrical equipment documents, as many homeowners may face serious financial problems and potentially tens of thousands of additional expenses due to higher tariffs starting in 2025.
