The new price lists on the shelves, Mitsotakis reports in India on the GEK TERNA – GRM scheme and the 1.5 million electricity consumers without VAT – Economic Post – 2024-02-26 08:49:50

Counterattack

Yesterday’s Metron Analysis poll presented by Mega also said so. Not that it’s news anymore, but as you say it has a significance that is constantly being established – maybe they will embed it in the Maximos Palace! I mean exactly as you understand. For which citizens say they suffer. And of course they are not wrong! A visit to a supermarket can convince even the most ignorant … Western European – because the Greeks know it! In the noble palace, where the prime minister’s staff is housed, they know it well and are planning their counterattack!

From March 1st

So, as I am told, the measures proposed by the Minister of Development, Mr. Kostas Skrekas – and for this reason he has also acquired the nickname of “the buyer”! – and they are going to be fully implemented from March 1st, it looks like they will have some first results! Of course, the cleanest month will not be March, but April.

Anguish!

However, recently there have been moves in the market that can produce positive developments. Such as the withdrawal of price lists with several codes and from several companies. Last Tuesday the price lists had to be submitted and I have to admit that there was an eagerness. Mainly for the authorities to verify that the information they had is confirmed and to inform the Maximos Palace validly.

And reductions…

Therefore, based on convergent information, the “image” that appears to be formed on supermarket shelves with the full implementation of the measures is, in principle, price stability, i.e. price increases have been withdrawn so that supply companies do not lose the ability to make offers . There are reductions in some cases, due to reductions in raw materials – and on the contrary increases due to revaluations of raw materials – in all seven categories, where companies are obliged to reduce the benefits on the price list by 30%, we will have reductions of 5% to 10% and not excluded and above in some cases.

Festivals

All this is, of course, a positive development, which will be well celebrated in the government – ​​not that the problem has been solved, but it is something…. And it is not excluded – I almost consider it certain! – that the Prime Minister Mr. Kyriakos Mitsotakis also make statements on this. This move is part of the government’s positive communications counter-offensive, which will develop immediately after the passage of the ‘non-state’ universities bill….

India

The business mission led by the Prime Minister, Mr. Kyriakos Mitsotakis, concludes its trip to distant India today, Friday.

So far, as I know, the result from the approximately 70 Greek companies that participated in the events and held B2B meetings with Indian companies was positive.

It will of course be seen in the future, especially if discussions and memoranda of cooperation end up in deals.

The template

However, the point in such cases is for someone to take the initiative.

And this has already been done between two large groups from Greece and India. And the reason for the joint scheme GEK TERNA – GRM in the construction and management of the new Heraklion International Airport.

The partnership model is considered a success, if only one can see the speed with which the new airport is being built. In fact, it will be the second largest in Greece.

And the joint venture of the two has continuity. Claims the concession of Kalamata Airport.

The Prime Minister

During his tour in India, Mr. Mitsotakis spoke at important business events organized by the country’s institutions.

In his speeches, he cited the aforementioned cooperation as a successful example: “It is not surprising that Indian companies are already investing in Greek infrastructure. I had the pleasure, before flying to Mumbai, to visit the control center of the airport in New Delhi, which is managed by GMR,” he said of GEK’s partner TERNA and continued: “GMR is actively involved in the construction of the new airport in particular my home country, Crete, of the largest airport currently being built anywhere in the Mediterranean. This could be just the beginning…” he noted.

The current meters

The Minister of Environment and Energy, Mr. Thodoros Skylakakis, has also said this and he had also promised a solution to the problem…

The reason for 1.5 million power consumption meters – ghosts.

What I mean; It is described very precisely by the electricity providers and more specifically by its link, ESPEN. In a letter to the Energy and Water Waste Regulatory Authority and the Minister of Environment and Energy, he notes: “With this letter, the Hellenic Association of Energy Suppliers wishes to point out again the chronic and particularly important issue of the lack of valid Tax Registration Number (TIN) and address for the identification of Customers corresponding to at least 1.5 million meters, which are represented by the dominant supplier and Universal Service providers…”

With damage

And the problem is how the specific meters belonging to consumers who do not pay electricity cannot be identified and thus the providers are unable to bill them: “In the absence of valid data, the identification and billing of a large proportion of customers who switch to the Universal Service regime becomes practically impossible, therefore the supply of electricity to the customers in question is carried out at a significant financial loss to the providers….”

ESPEN asks for a solution and urges RAAE and Mr. Skylakakis for the cooperation of AADE with DEDDIE in order to cross-check meters with consumers…

The truth is that Mr. Skylakakis has announced this collaboration since the beginning of last autumn.

Really what’s going on…?
