“The level of disinvestment we are facing is not resolved overnight,” Kogan pointed out in statements to Télam Radio, in which he also remarked that “the saving measures that were proposed” last week before the record demand for electricity was a response “in the face of an emergency event”, but “in no way” a permanent policy of the Government.
Kogan went out to the exchange of expressions of the president of the PRO, Patricia Bullrich, and warned that “there are two ways” to deal with the problems of energy consumption. “One is what the government represented by Mrs. Patricia Bullrich did, which was to screw up the economy, put one foot on popular income, suffocate them to the point of inexpressibility to lower demand, and the other is to try to create conditions so that the economy grows and develops”, he indicated.
Kogan stressed that to carry out the second option “permanent investments are needed and to attack the problems”.
“You have to work, plan, get financing, invest, carry out works,” he added, while assuring that “Without that, discussing whether the rates are high or low or the system is black or white, does not solve the problem of the Argentines.”
In this regard, he stressed that “since President Alberto Fernández took over the government, generation, transportation and distribution works have been launched” in different parts of the country.
Referring to what happened in the last few days, Kogan pointed out four concurrent factors that determined the fall of the service to thousands of AMBA users. “The first was an absolutely disinvested tool, the second a better development of the economy, the third an increase in popular income that generated an increase in the demand for energy and the fourth, a historic heat wave throughout the southern hemisphere, which was the icing on the cake of this emergency situation”, synthesized.
That combination caused “hundreds of thousands of Argentines to have a service problem that was foreseeable and unfortunate, but it is not an issue that we have to get used to,” he said.
Kogan indicated that “A country whose objective is to develop its economy and provide increasingly better living conditions for its inhabitants, immediately generates a greater demand for energy.”
To cope with this increase in consumption, he explained, “The highest levels of generation must be foreseen, a transport system capable of responding at times of maximum tension and a distribution system that allows businesses, industry and residential users to access the service when they need it” .
