The Association of industries of the Dominican Republic rejected the criminalization of electricity Superintendency has imposed on non-regulated users, most of whom belong to the industrial sector, on the grounds that it is not justified, is not attribution of the Superintendency of electricity and punishes those who serve as key elements in the financial support of the national electric system.
Ligia Bonetti of Valiente, President of the AIRD, explained that the electricity Superintendence (SIE) issued a resolution - the 535 2011-through which establishes the obligation of non-regulated users paying compensation, that qualifies as a fine to the ISE for every deviation of more than 10% of the daily programme of operation of the undertaking or scheduled demand energy.
the leader of the industrialists asked "immediately" rescind this resolution on the grounds that u000ait seriously additional costs of production of the companies.
"for industrial enterprises a deviation of 10% of energy demand often happens by diverse factors, so this"compensation"is, in addition to inappropriate and excessive, a distortion in an electrical system that is starting to put in order and a penalty to one of the inputs more important in the production of many industries", said Valiente Bonetti.
said that the electricity Superintendency not unaware the financial difficulties of the sector and, in this context, trying to penalize those who are key elements in financial sustainability, such as generators, distributors and non-regulated users of electricity, is inappropriate and counterproductive.
"Impose sanctions on the actors affects even more those that constitute a key element in financial sustainability" u000a"electricity is inappropriate and is not consistent with the pursuit of greater competitiveness for domestic industry," said the President of the AIRD.
expressed that resolution was not justified deviations that occur in the consumption of energy is something that should be treated as a fact of market between generators and non-regulated users and that, moreover, the Superintendency left the assumption that a deviation means extra costs "which does not show through some study, but that it is", indicated.
