Several public institutions, notably the Ministry of Public Health, MENFP, and the Delmas city hall among others, owe EDH more than nine billion gourdes, according to Pierre Michel Félix, president of the EDH workers' union. For the union leader, this situation has major impacts on the public company's performance.
“State institutions have a debt amounting to nine billion gourdes,” Mr. Felix laments, while calling on these clients to show responsibility.
Referring to the country's current security situation, the union leader complains about the difficulties the institution faces regarding meter collection, reading, and billing.
Furthermore, the president of the EDH workers' union federation, Pierre Michel Félix, denounces the silence of state authorities regarding the persistent degradation of the Peligre hydroelectric plant.
According to the union leader, the institution, through its technicians, has already played its part; it is up to the relevant authorities to take the necessary steps to create secure conditions allowing technicians to assess the damage, in order to facilitate the redistribution of electricity.
