Lebanese Electricity warns of public power cuts

The article concerns a warning issued by the Lebanon Electric Corporation regarding the potential power shutdown for the public sector due to delays in paying electricity bills and outstanding amounts, with government hospitals exempted for humanitarian reasons. The statement explained that the rising prices of fuel derivatives, especially the cost of gas oil which reached around $1,500 per ton compared to the previous reliance on approximately $680, has led to a financial crisis threatening the continuity of electricity. The corporation has decided to give public administrations and institutions a five-day grace period to settle their overdue payments, along with the activation of campaigns to remove violations on the network and reduce operating hours in areas with high energy waste. These measures are part of its efforts to recover dues and minimize losses. The corporation emphasizes that it will take legal action against violators and considers these warnings as a comprehensive alert to subscribers and public entities to ensure the continued supply of electricity.
