Electricity Supply to Public Sector Under Threat

Lebanon is suffering from a severe electricity crisis caused by the global rise in fuel prices, with gas oil prices approaching $1,500 per ton, while the institution's budget was based on a price of around $680. This significantly exceeded the institution’s financial capacity. Accordingly, the Lebanon Electric Power Authority issued a statement including a general warning, calling on government departments and public institutions to settle their overdue bills within five days; otherwise, power will be cut off, except for public hospitals for humanitarian reasons. The authority also emphasized the need to recover electricity bill payments, reduce supply hours in areas with high non-technical losses, and activate campaigns to remove violations from the electrical network. These measures aim to ensure the continuity of electricity supply to citizens amidst severe financial deterioration that threatens the sustainability of the public utility.
