Still no explanation BC about distribution electricity subsidy

In a press release dated 6 June, Unkobon asked the Executive Council to explain to the population why the majority of the companies receive a 47% subsidy on the fixed electricity tariffs and most households have to do it with a subsidy of 37% (see graph). The Executive Council did not respond to this.
Unkobon has actually determined that smaller connections (mostly households) have received a lower percentage of subsidy at the fixed rate than the 3×50 to 3×80 Ampere connections (mostly small and medium-sized businesses). This can be seen in the graph. In addition, it can be seen that connections above 3×100 amps have received less than 30% subsidy.
Of the approximately 1,600 connections of 3x50Ampere and larger, more than 1,200 receive a subsidy discount of 47% on the fixed user rate. The conclusion that the majority of companies receive a 47% subsidy on the fixed usage rates is shown by the figures. That is irrefutable.
Unkobon focuses on the impact of tariffs on the vulnerable group of lower incomes. The group of households that use little power due to financial necessity. Before WEB’s first proposal was made public in March 2018, Unkobon has insisted at WEB on a different distribution. Only after publication caused great resistance, WEB asked Unkobon to submit an alternative distribution. Unkobon then indicated that there are sound reasons for not giving the small connections a much lower percentage of subsidy than SMEs. Minister Wiebes also indicated that the distribution of the subsidy could have been different. That the vulnerable groups could have received more subsidy. This cannot be found in the current distribution.
In a press release dated June 19 WEB indicates that the special allocation to category 3 * 50 to 3 * 80 Ampere has had no effect on small connections. This is incorrect as far as Unkobon is concerned. If this special allocation was given to small connections, most households would have received a 47% subsidy on the fixed rate and SMEs would receive 37%.
Half of the households will pay at least 20% more than in 2017. Unkobon still believes that the EC is accountable for the distribution of the subsidy and should give the people an explanation why the subsidy is not distributed differently.
