Evolution of tariffs
As regards the way that retail prices for gas have evolved, last resort tariffs for the average consumer rose by 12% between 1 January 2008 and 1 January 2009, though they fell back 3.6% during the following month.
Clearly, the falling oil price during the last months of 2008 and the falling price of gas on the spot market and in contracts linked with the price of oil-based products will most probably lead to a fall in gas prices in the short term.
