Tier support for 20 million subscribers

Turkey raised the November and December usage thresholds under its tiered natural gas pricing system, a change expected to benefit roughly 20 million subscribers. Households consuming 100 cubic meters will pay about 900 Turkish lira less than under the previous limits. The adjustment effectively expands the subsidized lower-price tier during the winter heating season, when consumption typically peaks. It matters because the measure cushions household energy bills and signals continued government support for consumers amid inflation pressures. Watch for the fiscal cost of the expanded subsidy and whether the thresholds are extended beyond December.
