Fair kilowatt price hits 7 pounds
Engineer Dr. Mohamed Sleim, energy consultant, confirmed that the electricity price increase announced by the Ministry of Electricity is a result of rising production costs borne by the state. He stated that the fair global price for electricity is approximately 7 pounds per kilowatt-hour, whereas current prices are much lower. He emphasized that simply raising prices is not a sustainable solution, highlighting the necessity of enforcing laws and restructuring the electricity system to ensure justice. He also called for increased private sector participation in electricity generation and urged for consumer conservation, especially during peak times and heatwaves. Additionally, he pointed out that the economic burden on citizens is significant, and that the solution involves enhancing transparency and achieving a balance between production costs and selling prices.
