This content is stated in the proposal to amend the Electricity Law of the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

Accordingly, different electricity prices will be applied to areas and regions with different socio-economic conditions, ensuring a balance of relative benefits between power units and electricity users. In particular, the Ministry of Industry and Trade proposes to clearly stipulate incentive mechanisms, support, and compensation for electricity price differences for power plants using new and renewable energy.

In addition, the Ministry of Industry and Trade also proposed that the Prime Minister decide on policies, mechanisms, conditions, principles for determining electricity prices, and retail electricity price frameworks in each period in accordance with each level of development of the competitive electricity market. Retail electricity prices in rural, mountainous and island areas that have been connected to the national grid are determined and implemented according to the Retail Electricity Price List prescribed by the Minister. In cases where they have not or cannot be connected to the national grid, they are determined and implemented according to the business guarantee mechanism.

In particular, the law will be amended in the direction that the electricity regulatory agency has a source of revenue, is financially independent and has an operating mechanism, and is authorized to decide on a number of issues in regulating electricity activities.
