In 2009, HEO received ten initiations from universal service
suppliers on the change of prices. Five requests were approved
and fi ve were partly approved by HEO.
In May, all the four universal service suppliers submitted
request to HEO on price increase. The measure of price
increases included in the requests were different according
to suppliers. HEO, after examining the calculations attached
to the requests, made partially approving decisions in all
the cases (allowing price increases of 1.6-10.9%). The new
universal service prices came into force in July and August,
respectively, thus essentially ended the uniform price level of
residential electricity supply in Hungary.
In September, universal service suppliers submitted other
requests to HEO on price increase that were different
according to universal service providers. Universal servi-

ce prices coming into force on 1 November based on three
approving resolutions (DÉMÁSZ, ELMŰ, ÉMÁSZ) and one
partially approving resolution (E.ON) were higher by 2.2% to
10.2% on the average than the prices effective since July and
August, respectively.
Price increases required for reaching the trading margin
specifi ed in legislation were justifi ed in all cases mainly by
the share of electricity under feed-in obligation (within total
consumption) increased relative to 2008 and by price level
that was higher than in the previous year (due to gas pirce
increases in 2008).
The difference in the measure of price increases is explained
primarily by the different sales and purchase structure of the
given universal service suppliers.
E.ON submitted a request to HEO on price decrease in
November 2009 and DÉMÁSZ in December. HEO approved
the requests. The new universal service prices (lower than the
prices in November by average 6.85% and 3.2%, respectively)
came into force on 1 January 2010.
