What is the standard for charging the opening fee for industrial steam?
It varies from place to place; around 200 yuan per ton
200 yuan/ton? You think it’s the initial setup fee for each landline phone.
There is no specific \"standard\" for the opening fee of industrial steam; it depends on market demand and local practices. As far as I know, the prices are 200,000 yuan per ton, 100,000 yuan per ton, or 50,000 yuan per ton; this depends on the strength of the supplier and its negotiating power. However, there are also users who are unwilling to pay anything at all, in which case the construction costs have to be included in the price per unit of steam. Setting an opening fee helps users report their actual steam consumption. Otherwise, users report high usage amounts, but the actual consumption is low; this prevents an optimal balance from being achieved in terms of steam usage, resulting in waste of resources and increased investment costs for investors.
