Another user said they were getting a lower tariff when the house was in their grandfather's name, but not anymore. One user asked why their 81-year-old dad doesn't get a lower tariff. Another user said it depends on the municipality. One user said that tariffs depend on monthly electricity usage. They said that using over 300 or 350 units is high consumption.
