Overview
- The electricity regulator ENRE approved new tariff schedules effective November 1: Edesur bills rise 3.53% and Edenor 3.6% versus October.
- The Ministry of Economy formalized an average 3.8% increase for residential gas bills from November 1 under Resolution 1698/2025, reflecting a 7.2% hike in the PIST gas price with a smaller impact on final invoices.
- ENRE Resolution 730/2025 authorizes Edenor and Edesur to switch from bimonthly to monthly meter reading and billing, with implementation to begin within 30 days and a defined transition period.
- Consumer protections during migration include interest‑free payment plans, splitting any migration adjustments across at least two bills, and a ban on supply cuts for debts linked solely to the change in billing modality.
- Tariff updates are tied to cost components set for Nov 2025–Apr 2026 (PEST +3.45%, high‑voltage transport +7.61%) and maintain income‑based segmentation (N1, N2, N3) with targeted caps and bonifications; measures apply to AMBA distributors, with other provinces noting no direct immediate change.
