Romania May Keep Unchanged Gas, Electricity Prices Until Apr 1

Lificiu said the authority intends to make sure prices are predictable during the crisis.

In July, ANRE cut natural gas prices by 5% after a 3% cut on May 1. Household electricity prices were kept unchanged in 2009.

In 2009, natural gas and electricity consumption dropped by 25% and by 10%, respectively, due to the financial crisis.
