The consumer price index comparing DEC20 and DEC21 is around 8%

You might assume that the electricity price have doubled since DEC20, however, that is not the case, electricity prices have increased nearly 5 fold compared to DEC20. [Nordpool electricity prices](https://www.nordpoolgroup.com/Market-data1/Dayahead/Area-Prices/LV/Monthly/?view=table)

And from what I can see, salaries have not matched this increase in cost of living, I’ve even heard of companies citing “We can not afford to give a cost of living adjustment.”.

Just wanted to post this as this has been bothering me and some might not even be aware of this.

  1. Algas 20/21.. gadā diezgan strauji auga. Ja neskaita tos, kuri sēž uz minimālās.

    Pašam arī pieaugums 15%.

    Par elektrības cenām sev papētīju rēķinus. Pieauga par 40% summa.

    Jāņem vērā ir, ka pati elektroenerģija sastāda tikai daļu no visas summas.

    Liela daļā ir pieslēgums, pārvalde, zaļais nodoklis utt.

    Nezinu nevienu, kuram reāli rēķins kaut vai 2x būtu.
