A week after Pedro Fresco was dismissed as managing director of Ecological Transition (the latest chapter in the energy policy battle within Compromís), PPCV decided to attack Consell for its renewable energy management. . He did so by following the usual guidelines, personalizing the attack on president Ximo Puig and increasing the split in the left-wing trio.
Popular Valencian leader Carlos Mazón announced on Friday three actions his party will implement in parallel to try to wear down the Council over the delay in the deployment of renewable energy sources, particularly in the context of the energy crisis. The PP will appeal to the Ombudsman to investigate the “collapse” in the decision of the files on the installation of photovoltaic plants, report “sloppyness” in the same process before the General Inspection of Services, and make political and political demands. patrimonial in Cortes through an extralegal proposition.
Mazón once again defended the need for these initiatives in the face of what he saw as a “possible political blockade” of solar panels installation by Compromís, which he accused of having “prejudices” and “purges” among them. before the “passivity” of these supporters and Puig, which Generalitat placed as the person most responsible for accumulating “350 stroke projects” to accelerate the deployment of photovoltaic plants.
economic risk
The man from Alicante also focused on the economic consequences of what he thinks the Valencia coalition has deliberately delayed in allowing solar plants. Carlos Mazón complained that “more than 5,000 jobs are waiting to be started and more than 6,000 million euros of investment are not being developed”, stressing that “the most serious thing” is “you are playing with possible compensation”. If the files are not resolved by January 25, we will all pay approximately 1 billion euros, based on the possible requests of the project owners,” he said.
The head of PPCV went beyond licenses for the installation of photovoltaic plants and recalled other issues that, according to popular calculations, put the Valencian Community into “energy control”, “Spain’s most energy addicted”.
Mazón referred to the “160,000 people Generalitat had let down by the unpredictable forgetting of the 2020 energy bonus”, recalled that “Castellón ceramics” continued to be abandoned “by Puig and Sánchez”, and was accused against PSPV. “Re-endangering” the Sagunto gigafactory by rejecting the plant to power Volkswagen.
The leader of the popular Valencians opened up his plan to continue the impeachment against Puig with another classic: his minor influence before Head of Government Pedro Sánchez. To do this, he resorted to blocking the reform of the financing system and the recent “complaints” received by the province of Alicante. Carlos Mazón accused Puig of “abandoning” the change in the mechanism of distribution of regional funds and “not asserting” Alicante’s interests in the allocation of budgets, water or government office headquarters. “Puig chose Sánchez over the Valencians,” he concluded.
