The leader of VMRO-DPMNE Hristijan Mickoski wrote on Facebook that Macedonia, the citizens and ELEM/ESM have been damaged for about 16,000,000 denars in just 35 hours.
“How Macedonia, the citizens and ELEM are being robbed by today’s ESM!!!
ESM/ELEM publishes an ad for the sale of night surplus electricity for the period between 13th and 19th August from 2 to 7 in the total amount of 1750 MWh.
The price at which these night surpluses were sold is 277.71/MWh!
For the same period, the price of electricity on HUPX (reference exchange for determining the price of electricity in Macedonia) is €426.43/MWh or by days:
20/August 380 €/MWh
21/August €357/MWh
22/August 365 €/MWh
23/August 430 €/MWh
24/August €488/MWh
25/August 498 €/MWh
26/August €467/MWh
The price difference is:
1750 MWh x (€426.43-€277.71) = €260,260
Conclusion: Macedonia, the citizens and ELEM/ESM in just 35 hours have been damaged for about 16,000,000 denars and instead of the surpluses being offered to the economy that pays according to HUPX electricity and is fighting convulsively to survive and keep the workers, the money is stolen and end up in private pockets,” Mickoski’s Facebook post reads.
