To OFAS took on control negotiations of businessmen with power engineering specialists
of YAKUTIA.INFO. Consumers are not obliged to bring 100 percent payment for annual service on the electric power. Also power engineering specialists assumed responsibility for the caused damage when giving energy resources. And though Open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo" already declared these two moments publicly, actually problems up to the end are not resolved. They also were discussed at a meeting of businessmen Yakutsk with the director of Energosbyt of Branch of open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo" "Yakutskiye gorodskiye elektricheskiye seti" Koryagina Natalia in Administration office federal antimonopoly service on Sakha (Yakutia) Republic last Wednesday.
Anti-monopolists were connected byto a problem with an ulterior motive: Power sale Open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo" is the monopolist therefore in many respects consumers are compelled to play by his rules. But there are moments where the monopolist is obliged to follow the certain rules of the game controlled including UFASOM.
As we already reported earlier, the updated rules exclude need of 100 percent payment for annual service, and enter so-called partial advancing. So, by new rules, 30% of cost of electric (thermal) energy in the volume of purchase subject to payment in a month are brought to the 10th, 40% – to the 25th, and the rest – no later than the 5th date of the following for settlement.
of Power published on the website information that consumers need to renew old contracts on new, with the updated rules, in March, 2016. Trouble that this information poorly is carried to consumers.
Partially exposure in contract accounts about 100 percent payment could confuse the same businessmen. "You should not confuse the account about 100 percent payment to 100 percent advancing", - Koryagina Natalia explained.
"Experts in legal issues of our working group authoritatively declared that according to the Civil code, power engineering specialists had to notify as appropriate businessmen, including having dispatched notices by mail. In Open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo" recognized that allowed a certain violation, without having notified consumers properly. Yes, information was published on the website of companies, but the website of very few people visits therefore it is not enough of it, - the head of the working group on natural monopolies Coordination council on business at chapter makes comments on Sakha (Yakutia) Republic Vysokikh Irina . - Therefore now our task — most to inform this information to consumers".
As notes Vysokikh Irina, for renewal of contracts it is not so obligatory for consumer to collect anew all package of documents if it already handed over it earlier. It is necessary to update only already available packages those papers which existence provides the updated legislation. Or if the businessman had considerable intra organizational changes – for example, change of organizational form of ownership.
"We discussed possible disciplinary actions with Energosbyt in case experts incorrectly behave, demanding to collect all documents anew", - speaks Vysokikh Irina.
I third. Before Open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo" declared that undertakes to compensate damage to the consumer in case of possible differences on delivery the electric power. Let's say the businessman contains shop. There was an accident not an unlimited number of hours — at it were defrozen and became useless products. If in this case power engineering specialists are ready to indemnify the caused loss, is, of course, is laudable. Another thing is that an amount of damage experts will calculate Open joint-stock company Joint-stock company "Yakutskenergo", what not always objectively. After all the affiliated expert will work willy-nilly in interests of the companies.
Means, independent examination is necessary.
"This point in contract with Energosbyt is, we long argued and nevertheless coordinated inclusion of this formulation, leaving an option – to connect the independent expert or not – for the businessman. Problem that to Sakha (Yakutia) Republic there is a shortage of experts in the field of power with the corresponding accreditation in authorized body. Until the end of the year this issue has to be resolved", - the representative of KS on business speaks.
