Improvement of the state tariff policy for the services of infrastructure companies in the sphere of housing and communal services: integral approach

This study presents an innovative approach to the formation of the state tariff policy in the sphere of housing and communal services. It proposes a concept that includes six key aspects: the establishment of marginal rationed tariffs, financial discipline of consumers, consideration of environmental interests, introduction of digital technologies, creation of a unified catalogue of equipment and development of investment programmes. The study analyses the interaction between these aspects. The main objective of this study is to develop a tariff system that is characterised by objectivity, economic feasibility and transparency. Using a multi-faceted methodology, including analyses of existing practices, expert judgement and comparative studies, the potential for a holistic tariff system is examined. The main element of this approach is the integration of the established marginal rationed tariffs with financial, environmental and technological strategies in the sphere of housing and communal services. The proposed model seeks to balance the interests of the various actors in order to develop a tariff policy that promotes significant benefits for infrastructure companies and the population as a whole. The final objective is to create a reformed tariff mechanism that promotes sustainable development and encourages innovation in this area.
