Businesses in Wallonia pay between 15% and 21% more for gas and electricity than those in Flanders, figures from the federal energy regulator CREG show.
An analysis of CREG data published by L’Écho on Wednesday shows that while gas prices in Belgium are more attractive than in neighbouring countries, taxes on these rates are 3.5 times greater in Wallonia than in Flanders, driving up costs for businesses in Belgium’s southern region.
