Bassil criticizes Lebanon's electricity plan
The article discusses the failure of Lebanon's electricity sector and the impact of current policies on its sustainability. It notes that Gebran Bassil, leader of the Free Patriotic Movement, pointed out that the "Al-Qaoul" plan to achieve 24-hour electricity within six months has failed, reaching zero hours after a year and a half. He explained that the current system aims to divide Lebanon into electrical zones controlled by generator mafias, which deepens the crisis and maintains the fuel mafia. Bassil also criticized support policies for electricity and the rising costs of generators, emphasizing that there is significant wastage and losses amounting to $2.25 billion annually due to underutilization of existing capabilities, coupled with accumulating bills on citizens and declining service quality. He called for holding responsible officials accountable for the failure, considering that current policies hinder an efficient energy distribution strategy and lead to increased financial burdens on the state and citizens.
