Questions about electric bill …
Through the Energy Committee, the House of Representatives discusses the General Electricity Act of 2025, which has been implemented for more than twenty years. Regardless of the content of the project, the policy of recognizing a permanent law requires that the Public Electricity Act was given to the Eighteenth Parliament in another form, but it was withdrawn for the fact that the government had no place at the time.
According to the form and the promoted, the new draft law proposes the reform directions, the market gradually, in promoting investment, the diversification of energy sources, and the localization of modern technologies, thus enacting and storing plans and plans to save, save plans and plans to save plans. Independent power transmission systems to cover up consumption outside the National Network According to the rules of the draft law, all of these are later organized by the instructions issued by the Energy Department Regulatory Authority.
These items are a standard change towards liberalization of a portion of the market. However, the biggest challenge is not in the goal, but in the approach to reach.
Open market applications are not a new idea, but rather self -general systems and transport projects have already been used. These applications are based on applications for market liberalization. However, by the institutional mechanisms provided by power in this case, its use, often lack of balance and clarity, led to practical impacts and objections from different parties from different parties, as a result, which has always been at the expense of the National Electricity Company, which continued the technical and financial costs from these incentives.
Despite this test, the draft law with a form is repeatedly repeated (not all is not necessary), and then postponing the process of the task for the instructions offered! This approach is worried that we will follow such activities without an integrated view, and that the expected methods as expected as previous experiences will become contradictory equipment.
Please note that the temporary law provides the necessity of the energy sector power in the sector of energy in conducting annual studies and cooperation with partners to measure the amount of maturity of the market and its readiness to gradually go to the open market. Unfortunately.
In the absence of this vision, the risks are concentrated with a party, which is the role of the electrical system operator and the cost of protecting the cost of the reserve generation and the power system, while other parties of the generation and distribution sectors offer all its expenses and gains. Accordingly, we face a scene where the parties will benefit at the expense of other parties, which will increase the financial and functional imbalance of the entire sector. We have expressed our view of this in the past, and the chest is narrow, although there was a goal and still enrich the debate and the progress of publications.
Postponing the processing of details revealed to “subsequent instructions” without initial and open participation, the law loses its meaning and makes the crisis happy. The experience of the field with personal instructions and results has often shown its lack of art depth and the inability to confront structural challenges. Therefore, any impending instructions should not be left to the latter place, rather than now, and the decision to assess the entire possibilities of the draft law must be concluded, and before it is accomplished, it is a mature project, which is not a public umbrella, and wait for unrelated details. The first steps of this maturity, today, should look at the institutional instructions given by the Ministry of Power and Ministry, so that the project does not progress in what is unknown, dedicating additional loads in the power system instead of putting it on the path of actual reform.
