This also applies to public service providers (schools, hospitals, &#8230;), for which energy will be provided by a state-appointed supplier. With regard to business support, the government has not taken any decision yet.<\/p>\n<p>To support the costs, the government plans on taxing more those sectors that make profits from the current situation of energy and fuel prices and excess revenues from the sale of emission allowances.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the government also decided to change the previous <strong>government regulation on energy cost subsidy<\/strong>, which introduced the well-known &#8220;energy saving&#8221; tariff. Furthermore, energy suppliers will no longer be required, for now, to send customers details of advances on energy bills because they have to recalculate them considering the new &#8220;price caps&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Sources:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.camic.cz\/\">https:\/\/www.camic.cz\/<\/a> ;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vlada.cz\/\">https:\/\/www.vlada.cz\/<\/a> ;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/czechdaily.cz\/\">https:\/\/czechdaily.cz\/<\/a><br \/>\nSource of images:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mpamag.com\/\">https:\/\/www.mpamag.com\/<\/a> ;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/storyset.com\/\">https:\/\/storyset.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Government introduced rules to limit gas and electricity prices On Monday, September 12th, the Czech government approved the cap on the price of electricity and gas (CZK 6 and CZK&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[525,26],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-7574","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-en","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7574","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7574"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7574\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14774,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7574\/revisions\/14774"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7574"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=7574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
