The wholesale price of electricity produced in megawatts per hour (MWh) on the energy exchange is on the rise.
The maximum daily price is 580 euros and the minimum is 108 euros with the demand at 171 gigawatts per hour (GWh).
All of the European markets have been impacted by large inflation rates. But on the eastern side of the geographic region – from Hungary to Greece – they have soared, and our country yet again, has the largest increases.
In an interview regarding the increase in electricity prices, the State Secretary to the Prime Minister of Greece, Pavlos Marinakis commented on the following:
“With our intervention, we have managed to keep prices lower so that consumers will not need to pay excessive increases for which they are obviously not responsible. We have invested over 10 billion euros. If the necessity arises, there will obviously be the corresponding support. Citizens will not pay the potential wholesale increases in retail. The state will not allow some parties to profit at the expense of the consumers of electricity. We are not criminalising profit but racketeering. We have used such tools in the past and you can be sure that we will do it again.”
Mr. Marinakis, where did the 10 billion originate from? Did you give them out of your own pocket? Did your New Democracy (ND) party give the amount? (He owes millions) … and every year your debt increases!!..
Did Mr. Mitsotakis bring them from his personal accounts before becoming Prime Minister of Greece??
Are you not ashamed, given your institutional position, to talk about the citizens’ money as if it were your own?…
It is not the first time you have tried to cover up your “political” failures. You have completely destroyed the economy of Greece. Not only the government of New Democracy, but all previous governments of all the parties included.
Is every government playing the same card of calling upon the recovery fund? Sirs! it is OUR money that we deposit in the EU as its members!! They are not your own to use in performing party ‘politics’.
“Gentlemen”, electricity is a public good!!
A public good is one whose consumption is indivisible among all members of a community without exclusion.
Previously, the Public power Corporation (PPC) and its relevant departments were responsible for the maintenance of the electricity supply network. Lately, the business model has changed and the network has been separated from the central service. Private shareholders have started to measure and control the maintenance costs. The concept of a public good has been undermined and devalued.
Pre-existing investments are exhausted and new ones are avoided by the new private “owners” in order to extract the expected profits.
At the moment, the conditions show increasing trends in electricity prices, with the changes starting from the wholesale market and expected to also affect retail as early as December…..and we don’t only have increases in electricity prices.
Today, the Greek people are experiencing a targeted attack of discredit, economic impoverishment, moral decline and the looting of public and private property.
For at least the last 200 years, all the parties that have governed Greece keep talking to us about debt management.
In order to get out of this forfeiture, worthy Greeks need to take over the management of our wealth with Values, Principles and perfected Laws.
Upon reading the Founding Declaration and the Policy Statements of the Political Body of the Hellenic Assembly (Ellinon Syneleysis), lodged to the Supreme Court of Greece with registry no. 6199/04-09-2015, it states that the Greeks have vast funds within trust accounts for the implementation of projects that belong to the people.
The President of the Political Body, Mr. Artemis Sorras has made these funds readily available, placing the guarantees from his personal portfolio.
And I pose the question… is it possible for something that has been approved by the Supreme Court of Greece (Areopagus) that also participates as the Body of the Greek Nation in all elections – national and European – to be a lie?
Why are they hiding the truth from the Greek citizens by any means (Mainstream media, Judiciary, etc.)?
Ellenes (Greeks), the time has come!! We have an obligation and duty to stand united and be on the right side of history.
