Singapore households are getting a small break on their power bills this quarter, with utility rates dropping from July to September 2025. SP Group announced a 2.3 per cent cut in electricity tariffs, while City Energy trimmed town gas prices by 0.44 cent per kWh.

The average four-room HDB household will save about $2.36 a month on electricity alone. The new rate stands at 27.47 cents per kWh before GST. Gas prices now sit at 22.28 cents per kWh.

The cuts are driven by lower global fuel costs, which have eased after months of volatility. Both SP Group and City Energy review tariffs quarterly under EMA guidelines.
