The plenary will discuss a proposal of IU-V to save about 300,000 euros per year in electricity (17/02/2017)

Pedro Sosa Martínez, Spokesman for the Municipal Group of IU-V, presented this morning a proposal that will be discussed in the ordinary Municipal Plenary of February, and with which it intends to join Lorca to the Contracting Center of the Spanish Federation of Municipalities And Provinces in order to substantially reduce the cost of electricity consumed by the City Council, especially by public lighting.

Sosa recalled that in recent months there have been several political initiatives promoted by the Municipal Group of IU-V to achieve a fairer and more progressive municipal taxation, to rest the collection of local taxes of Lorca more in those who have more economic capacity Have, and less in all the families of our municipality that carry the effects of a crisis that lasts for many years.

The councilman of IU-V states that in addition to proposing alternatives on the revenue side, we must also collaborate as a political group making proposals related to spending.

In this case, one that we must invariably assume each year and that by its amount is extraordinarily important;

Which has to do with the supply of electricity and natural gas to meet the energy needs of the municipality, mainly those derived from public lighting.

Sosa recalled that the latest data that we know about this concept, and only for electricity supply, are 2015 and assumed the expense of 3,551,827.26 euros in electricity supplied by IBERDROLA in accordance with Stipulations of the contract that this City Council has signed with that company.

The leftist mayor has stated that the Spanish Federation of Municipalities and Provinces (FEMP) provides local entities that adhere to the so-called Central de Contratación an important service that, according to FEMP sources, achieves very significant reductions in costs Of contracting electricity and gas supplies.

At present there are 619 local entities affiliated to the aforementioned Central de Contratación, among them 24 of the 45 municipalities of the Region of Murcia.

This Central carries out a kind of Framework Agreement with the supplying companies obtaining prices that, by what is advertised, appear to be very competitive.

The FEMP speaks of sales above 8% on average, which, projected in the case of Lorca and with figures from 2015, could mean a saving of no less than 284,000 euros per year.

With these figures, IU-V intends that the contracting technical services of the City Council collect the precise data of the FEMP, and prepare an economic report on the opportunity and convenience of joining the City of Lorca to the Contracting Center of the FEMP for the Contracting of electricity and gas supplies, which, if necessary, serves to initiate the timely file for the accession of Lorca to that Contracting Center and the subsequent supply contract through the Framework Agreement.
