On December 22, the Nikkei Newspaper on page 1 of its morning edition reported "TEPCO to Hike Corp Customer Rates". However, TEPCO did not release any statements substantiating the article's contents.
However, given the many inquiries that have arisen concerning this article, we will hold a press conference at 11am today, where President Nishizawa will explain the reasons behind the electricity tariff hike.
