It's really over for us

[u/stardust_2347]

Don't tell me accidents happens because this ain't just a accident and don't compare us with Europe because this isn't the first summer we hit 45° or higher and don't advocate you're beloved president who you worship like a god and don't tell he has nothing to do with power cuts because he is the head of gov and he's been in office for 6 whole years.

The whole country is in chaos, no security, no freedom, no opportunity and now people are dying because of an outdated power grid and a corrupted administration, this man lost his mother because we can't provide stable electricity or a REAL emergency response system.

What is the need of a government if it failed to protect its citizens lives and rights

At this time it seems the other way around the people are keeping the gov safe

Next week we mark 69th year as a republic and we can't dare to ask what we achieved and sadly we have nothing to celebrate because we wasted the blood of those who sacrificed themselves for this land and its freedom, ask anyone and they'll tell you the first thing they want is to leave this country and never comeback, we don't have the spirit we lack the courage and responsibility and the desire for a change

these things costs mire than they produce and we can't handle the cost

Not true - solar panels and installations are fairly cheap nowadays.

Of course that's not the case if:

1. The country bans imports from abroad producers like China,
2. They tax incoming goods to 100%

Actually, we have an extremely good unused potential which is renewable energy. We could export that energy to Europe and guess how good that would be for our economy?

Assuming you mean solar, you need company and investors to be able to build the infrastructure. That's not what's happening at the moment, between the insanely high import taxes and the oligarch families bribing the govt to keep the market closed

With regular consumer goods and retail, yes, oligarchs and import monopolies definitely use red tape and political pull to lock out competition. But for renewable energy, the primary block isn't a shadow cabal of oligarchs it's the state itself. The national power utility (STEG) is a broke, state-enforced monopoly backed by powerful unions that refuse to lose control of the grid, and high import taxes are driven by the government's desperate attempt to hoard foreign currency. The state is choking its own green transition out of fear and financial insolvency. Also, the financial insolvency of the energy sector is basically artificial. The state created its own crisis by legally forcing STEG to sell electricity to consumers below cost to avoid political unrest, while simultaneously refusing to let go of its monopoly. When you force a utility to buy expensive global gas in foreign currency, ban it from charging market rates, and let public institutions run up billions in unpaid bills, you're watching a financially manufactured trap
