As of the 1st July 2011 EVN introduced a standing charge for access to electric of commercial customers. If your company owns your house and your electric account is in your company name you are classed as a commercial customer.
There seems no way around this. Other providers such as EON (VT way) allow a notary signed declaration that the company is allowing private people to rent/use the house and so no charges. EVN refuse to allow this stating it is illegal.
The charges are based on the wattage available to that property per day. So for example if you have 15kw going to the house then for a month the charge is:
15 x 30 (days) x 0.015 (standard charge) = 6.75 PLUS VAT per month.
You can complete a declaration available on the EVN website to print off to reduce your wattage to 6KW. Then your monthly charges would be 2.7 PLUS VAT per month.
BUT.....if you use over 6kw in two consecutive months you MUST apply for it to be increased to 15KW again. THIS INCURS A 400 lev fee or more.
If you are not using electric at a property you can have the contract stopped and the electric disconnected i.e. wires taken off, not just turned off at electric board. You have to pay 34 levs for this. BUT if you want electric in the future it is around 450 levs to reconnect.
