So now the RA is involved we can relax right…..NOT!!! Look what they did for the telecoms world, we (customers) are being shafted at every turn and the RA continues to dismiss incompetence and BS put forward bt the providers go way above their heads and the same path will be followed by BELCO

BELCO are really bad at what they do except overcharging customers, this is a company that’s made billions over the last hundred years or so and have invested very little back into future technology and has paid huge dividends to their directors bought companies like Bermuda gas, air care etc which has nothing to do with the core business and has held Bermuda hostage on many an occasion from the “ power surcharge” and fictitious “demand limit calculations” the RA will never figure it out, so we have more of the same to look forward to

It is not too late….write to electricity @ rab . bm and voice your concerns. Let them know you want lower electricity prices. Let them know you are concerned about BELCO’s IRP and let them know you are interested in an energy mix that will ensure lower costs for the next 25 years and that what BELCO is proposing will lock us into volatile pricing for the next 25 years. Let them know we want more assurance that prices will be lower. You have two days left to voice your concern. Otherwise, forever hold your peace!

So why is BELCO building another diesel plant as we speak if there are alternatives? Cart before the horse. I guess the chairman fooled Bermuda with another America’s Cup type promise. He is costing Bermuda. Like Minister Desilva said, anyone can get people to Bermuda for 60M. It’s about sustainable change not a won hit wonder. How much electricity will we save with BELCO’s 100M diesel power plant ? Why are we stuck with the BELCO plan if the IRP is about alternatives? What a joke. Paying a so called world class foreign experts to reduce Bermudian jobs while they and board members get paid bonuses along with greedy shareholders. Sleep well board members as you cripple Bermuda more with higher electricity prices for your children to bare.

Your are just selfishly use too much electricity and are mad you have to pay for it. Cell phone bills can be just as high but I dont hear you complaining about that.

Whatever BELCO come up with it will be disguised in a way that they can still milk the consumer so that the greedy share holders can keep their bank accounts full. The cost will never come down.
