Komi Republic plans steep utility tariff hikes for households in 2026
Lawmakers in the Komi Republic’s State Council have been discussing significant utility tariff hikes for households. The first increase, expected in January 2026, could reach 1.7%. A second hike, planned for October 2026, may average up to 15%. The exact figures are still pending federal regulations on various factors. While these increases are set for households, other consumers may face even higher tariff hikes. The State Council's discussions come as part of broader budget planning for 2026. Available documents detail tax changes, minimum wage adjustments, and public sector salary increases, but do not specify which organization sets the 2026 tariff maximum limits for public payments. Residential tariffs are set to rise in January and October 2026, with the first increase potentially reaching 1.7% and the second averaging up to 15%. Other consumers may see even higher hikes. Precise calculations await federal regulations.
