What is a Gas Year and How to Calculate Your Gas Distribution Payment Yourself?
Gas Year – is the period from October 1 of the current year to September 30 of the following year. The monthly payment for gas distribution is calculated based on this period.
To calculate the distribution amount for the next period, consumption during the previous gas year is taken into account.
For example, if consumption decreased from October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022, the gas delivery cost for the next year will also decrease.
Before the start of a new gas year, it is important, if possible, to check all gas equipment and communications.

Take the total gas consumption for the past gas year (in cubic meters).
Multiply it by the tariff set for your region.
Information on the current tariffs approved by the NEURC can be found on the NEURC website or GazPravda:
Divide the result by 12 months.
The resulting number is your monthly payment for gas distribution for the next gas year, i.e., from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2023.
How to Submit Meter Readings?
Meter readings can be submitted online: via Viber bot or in the personal account on 104.ua. If a subscriber had to relocate due to hostilities, the last submitted readings can be viewed in the personal account; if gas consumption did not occur, these readings can be repeated.
If a person is internally displaced and does not know their last readings, they can also check remotely via the 104.ua personal account to see the last readings and last payment. If the gas service was not used during this period, no payment is required.
Do You Need to Pay for Gas Transportation?
The gas transportation bill is issued once per gas year. Based on the volume of gas consumed, a calculation is made for how much gas was used and the network capacity.
The distribution fee is the payment for using the network capacity. These funds are used to maintain pressure in the network.
Thus, gas transportation is calculated once per year based on your consumption, but payment for this service is made throughout the year.
