Haiti - FLASH : 80% of EDH customers refuse to pay their electricity bill
Monday at a press conference, Pierre-Louis Hervé, the Director General of Electricity of Haiti (EDH), denounced the refusal of many customers to pay their electricity bill.

Stressing that for the EDH to continue to supply the capital, especially the metropolitan area as well as the provincial cities with electricity, customers must play their role by displaying responsible behavior, paying their bills on time, and changing their perception of the EDH. Recalling that of the 45 circuits that supply the metropolitan area, 10 circuits (22%) provide more than 20 hours of electricity out of 24.

Hervé regrets that only 1,330 (51.5%) of the 2,578 consumers classified in the category of large customers have paid their bill. At regular customers in outlying areas such as Pétion-ville, Delmas, Tabarre and Carrefour the situation is worse "Commercial Management has prepared and issued 36,313 bill to customers of the commune of Pétion-ville : only 6,445 paid (17.7%). In Port-au-Prince, out of 21,700 consumers, 5,044 paid (23%). In Delmas, out of all the customers listed only 6,963 (23%) out of 29,787 have paid their bill..."

For Hervé Pierre-Louis, EDH will be functional only when customers pay their bills.

In addition, he said that EDH's anti-fraud department had recovered more than 4.4 million Gourdes in a recovery operation last September, following court actions against fraudsters in the metropolitan area of ​​which 128 were arrested for illegal use of electricity recalling that the fight against fraud was one of the priorities of the EDH.
