The official pointed out that the situation “is more under control” now, and that “last week was the time to attend to the cuts” of electricity and “this week is to review the causes and sanctions”.
Martínez spoke this morning with accredited journalists at the Casa Rosada after meeting with the chief of staff, Juan Manzur, and the deputy governor in charge of Tucumán, Osvaldo Jaldo, about works for that province that will have an impact on the northern region.
“We have been working side by side on an important energy plan, setting the goal as it should be in that area in the long term, facing long-term works with the IDB (Inter-American Development Bank), others with their own financing, but we understand that we will resolve the energy issue in Tucumán 25 years from now and that is important,” he said.
Martínez expanded that all this is “in addition to some projects already presented and that the Electricity Undersecretary, Proinen (National Electricity Inclusion Program), and also that of Hydrocarbons with gas networks that we are very satisfied with what we have been doing after important works had not been carried out”.
“Actually, we are happy. We managed to solve many of the problems but we need the neighbors to have service permanently, that there are no cuts, we have to continue working and that is done with planning, with greater controls, with sanctions and also with investment. We have to work so that there are fewer and fewer cuts,” he added.
About last week’s outages, he said que “It is true that this combination is very unlikely to happen again, but we have to be vigilant so that, if it happens again, we always have fewer cuts, throughout the length and breadth of the country”.
Martínez, in that plane, explained that the ENRE “is doing its job very well and has to control. (Juan) Perón used to say ‘man is good, if he is controlled better’, and in this case the public services have to have greater control and the sanctions have to be exemplary”.
Regarding the public hearing convened by the National Gas Regulatory Entity (Enargas), which began this morning with the aim of considering the transitory adaptation of the network transport and distribution service rate, he pointed out thatand “today transportation and distribution is addressed and in a few days a new public hearing will also be held, and on that a tariff scheme will be put together that, as we already announced, will be in the order of 20%”.
