The new rental contract template is expected to take effect in mid-July, requiring landlords to charge tenants based on the actual electricity usage. The Consumer Protection Commission approved the latest rental contract template on the 28th, stipulating that landlords can only charge tenants based on the actual electricity bills from Taiwan Power Company.
