Private Generators Survive Despite Crackdowns
The article discusses the expansion of private generator dominance at the expense of Électricité du Liban (Electricity of Lebanon), as they have become the primary means of providing electricity despite violations and irregularities in pricing and meter installation. Among these violations are legal confiscations, which are often compensated for by resorting to political influence and local nepotism. Despite oversight campaigns and official reports, generator owners continue to evade compliance, leveraging political and economic influence to do so. This makes regulation of the sector difficult, placing high costs on citizens and offering unreliable service amid weak oversight and ineffective enforcement of judicial decisions. The reliance on private generators remains the main solution to meet the demand for electrical power.
