Fawzi Meshlab criticizes electricity scandal
Fouzi Mushlab exposes Lebanon's electricity crisis, noting that the price of fuel oil used to operate the Zouk and Jiyé plants has not risen in line with gas oil prices, even though fuel oil has been available for eight months and Lebanon's stockpile amounts to 33,000 tons. He explained that the cost of generating electricity from the Zouk and Jiyé plants is about 16 cents per kilowatt-hour, while citizens are forced to rely on private generators at a cost of 60 to 70 cents due to the shutdown of the newer, more cost-effective plants. He called for raising the price of gas oil to cover the true costs and to immediately restart the Zouk and Jiyé plants, emphasizing that their continued shutdown increases the financial burden on the citizens.
