Verified questions that cite this figure
How is town gas billed in Hong Kong, and how often do you pay?
Town gas in Hong Kong is supplied by the Hong Kong and China Gas Company (Towngas). Consumption is metered in cubic metres, and the bill typically combines a base charge, a per-cubic-metre usage price and a fuel adjustment charge. Billing is usually monthly or quarterly; the exact cycle, meter-read date and rates follow Towngas statements and official tariff.
