Meeting emphasizes no unauthorized invoice charges

The statements by Prime Minister Nohad Azour focused on the government's measures to address the rising bills for private electricity generators in Lebanon. He explained that the global increase in diesel prices has led to higher operating costs, with diesel prices increasing by about 35% from July to August, and the cost per kilowatt-hour for generators rising by more than 18%. Despite this, he emphasized that exploiting people's needs or imposing illegal fees is not permitted, and that the government will strictly enforce monitoring and confiscation procedures against violators. This includes confiscating generators that exceed the official pricing, reaffirming that adhering to the regulated prices is a right for citizens. He also underscored that achieving sustainable electricity requires profound sector reforms, and that the government is working to reduce waste and improve distribution networks. He reiterated that private generators are a temporary solution until public power supply improves. Finally, he urged citizens to report violations to ensure law enforcement and protect their rights.
