  "summary": "Turkiye has announced plans to revise household power tariffs, lowering the annual electricity consumption threshold for subsidized tariffs to 3,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) by 2027. This change, announced by the country's energy regulator, is expected to shift around 6.5 million households to a higher-cost tariff. Currently, households consuming less than 3,000 kWh annually will qualify for subsidized tariffs, while those consuming more will be charged under the final resource supply tariff. The new threshold, equivalent to an average monthly consumption of 250 kWh, will take effect on January 1, 2027, affecting 14.7 percent of Turkiye's 44.2 million residential electricity subscribers. The decision does not alter electricity prices under the national tariff and will not impact agricultural consumers, industrial users, public and private services, lighting subscribers, village drinking-water facilities, temporary accommodation centers, and consumers relying on life-support devices.",
