The coordinator of IU-Greens in Cieza, Francisco Saorín, denounced through a press release "Masked uploaded a new light with the increase of the fixed part of the receipt."
For the coordinator ciezanos ecosocialistas, the change in the composition of the electricity tariff "which shows the desire to ensure the great benefits of the five electricity market spread in our country enterprises, to the unstoppable decline in consumption as result of a crisis that never ends, "stressing that" the benefits of these power will be provided by the whole population, but will have a particular impact on the families most affected by the crisis, exacerbating their energy poverty.
The Ministry of Industry indicates that this reweighting will not raise the bill, but a transfer between electrical consumers on behalf of those who consume more, especially families with children.
No clutch, Saorín complaint that the measure also especially benefit consumers with greater purchasing power which does not have to worry about consumption at the expense of users with more trouble making ends meet as unemployed, retired or single parents, who try minimize their consumption to save.
"In short, this rise will affect the poorest sectors of society," he says.
IU-Greens Cieza estimates that this regulatory change, which has determined that more than half of the receipt of light (60%) is paid regardless of consumption, in addition to lacking any logic, is actually discourage energy saving , in breach of European policies on sustainable development and combating climate change.
In this sense, ciezanos ecosocialistas reject the justification of the Government that a change in the structure of the electricity tariff of this caliber has decided to increase the contributions to the system of empty homes and second homes.
"This can be easily achieved without penalizing the majority of consumers," says Saorín.
Saorín remember that consumer associations and trade unions have denounced the fixed tranche rise in electricity tariff.
Thus Facua spokesman, Ruben Sanchez, has dismissed as "teasing" the explanations given by the Ministry of Industry since, as calculated by the association, the profile of the average user pays 75% more than ten years ago .
Finally, Saorín said that "this is not an isolated event, but a new twist on the unjust distribution of the costs of the crisis in our country, in which the Government has clearly positioned for firms oligopoly Electrical and against the whole population. "
