Researcher Ghassan Baydoun described cutting electricity to government agencies as “illogical,” given their limited resources and the mismatch between their budget allocations and electricity tariffs and actual consumption. He warned of the consequences for vital facilities and public services. Public-sector arrears stand at $248 million, while the general electricity supply is limited to about two hours a day. He said Qatar’s offer to build power plants in Deir Ammar and Zahrani, with a combined capacity of up to 1,650 megawatts, and to supply gas, represents an opportunity that requires a comprehensive, transparent proposal, accurate figures and security stability. He cautioned that talk of round-the-clock electricity remains premature. He proposed expanding renewable energy, building hydroelectric plants in Wadi Qadisha, restarting the Kirkuk–Tripoli pipeline, and enabling municipalities to generate electricity in cooperation with the private sector.
