The normative documents drafted by the National Agency for Energy Regulation (ANRE) cannot solve the problems that appear in the relations between the suppliers and consumers of electric power. Consequently, the end-users sustain unjustified costs, the head of the Association of Electric Power Consumers Nicolae Mogoreanu said in a roundtable meeting staged by the National Metrology Institute on the World Metrology Day, IPN reports.
According to Nicolae Mogoreanu, the regulations do not contain clear stipulations regarding the commercial electricity metering points. The points are located at a great distance from the consumers and they cannot control the functionality and consumption rate. The people also do not agree with the way the losses included in the tariff are calculated.
Nicolae Mogoreanu noted that a type of meters sold by a firm is not accepted by the distribution operator though these meters are homologated in Moldova. The courts of law have deferred taking a decision for three years. Therefore, the National Metrology Institute should intervene. It’s not normal when the distribution operator accepts selectively only a part of the meters homologated in Moldova.
