黄锦星称冻结明年电费是平衡多方面因素 港灯指保就业补贴用於抵销开支
环境局局长黄锦星在立法会会议上表示,中电(00002.HK)及港灯(02638.HK)明年的净电费将冻结在今年的水平。其中,中电明年基本电费上调1.5仙至93.7仙,燃料调整费下调2.7仙至28.1仙,净电费维持每度电121.8仙。港灯基本电费则上调7仙至109仙,燃料调整费下调7.4仙至17.4仙,净电费保持於每度电126.4仙。
对於政府推出的每户2,000元电费补贴即将完结,明年是否会延续有关补贴,黄锦星没有直接回应,但称两电要配合政府减碳政策,增加天然气发电相关投资,而疫情对经济带来严峻挑战,电费亦面临调整压力,冻结明年净电费是考虑及目前社会情况等多方面因素的平衡结果。
他又称,虽然政府每户2,000元的电费补贴将结束,但政府仍有每月每户补贴50元电费的计划,而本港一般家庭每月平均电费约二百多元,补贴额已相等於电费约两成,相信此50元补贴计划会在未来数年持续。
另外,港灯获政府保就业计划补贴逾5,000万元,港灯董事总经理尹志田称公司获得补贴後将款项用於抵销开支,电费有所减低,有关补贴并不是「入公司袋」。而公司申请补贴後承诺不会裁员,亦有安定员工作用。
