Jakarta (B2B) - Skema kenaikan tarif dasar listrik (TDL) akan dilakukan per tiga bulanan mulai 1 Januari 2013. Keputusan ini seiring dikeluarkannya Peraturan Menteri (Permen) Energi Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) tentang kenaikan TDL tahun 2013 pada 21 Desember lalu.
"Dengan skema tersebut, penaikan listrik pada tahun 2013 akan terjadi empat kali. Tiap kali naik, nilainya sebesar 3,75 persen atau 15 persen selama setahun, sesuai yang disetujui DPR," kata Menteri ESDM Jero Wacik di Jakarta, Rabu (26/12).
Tidak semua golongan pengguna listrik naik. Golongan pelanggan listrik 450VA dan 900 VA dibebaskan dari kenaikan tarif. Sementara besaran penaikan tarif untuk pelanggan listrik lain bervariasi.
"Januari naik 15 persen didistribusi menjadi empat kali naik. Kenaikan gradual, tidak langsung sekaligus. Ini dalam rangka memperingan masyarakat. Sudah ditandatangani keputusan menterinya tinggal PLN akan jalankan mulai Januari," ujar Jero Wacik.
Sebelumnya Kementerian ESDM mengajukan tiga opsi penaikan TDL, yakni penaikan langsung 15%, penaikan bertahap per bulan dan penaikan per tiga bulan. Lantaran dua opsi pertama dinilai akan memberatkan masyarakat, maka pilihan jatuh pada opsi ketiga.
