Abstract
Gas prices’ high increases hit hard the population of Republic of Moldova which determined the government to implement a system of compensations based on energetic vulnerability of the household. Each household is ascribed a category of energetic vulnerability, on the basis of its income and its expenditures, in particular, energy expenditures. It includes compensations on various energy sources: gas, electricity, centralized heating system. In this paper the particularties of this system are described, the data on last heating seasons are analyzed, changes in the current heating season are discussed. Although costly, the program of compensations for household energy expenditures during heating season is still helpful for the socioeconomic support of population of Republic of Moldova.
