The Blutane cast in Spain will face an indefinite strike in this month of February but an agreement with the government is not reached. A situation that puts thousands of homes in check. Short. The Spanish Federation of Petroleum Liquefied Gas Distributors (FEDGLP) have held a meeting with the Secretary of Energy, Joan Groizard, after which they have decided to maintain the indefinite unemployment notice in the home delivery service. The motivation of the action would occur if the Spanish Executive does not implement measures that guarantee the viability of the sector. According to FedlGP, butane distribution He is facing A great loss of profitability because the regulations that regulate the maximum price of the packaged LPG has not been updated to reflect the growing operational costs: transport, storage, distribution logistics, inflation, increased labor costs and regulatory demands. This situation has led to intermittent suspensions of home cast in previous months. The beginning. The final decision will be taken in an assembly of the FEDGLP at the end of February. However, the dealers have carried out Several strike days In November and December, claiming an update of the rates they receive for each bottle delivered, since they have been reviewing more than a decade. These strikes affected the delivery of more than 150,000 daily bombs, on which approximately six million homes depend throughout the country. Far from solving. The sector has claimed an immediate update of the regulations to adjust the maximum price of the packaged LPG and compensate for increases in operational costs. From the Federation they have explained that companies lose 1.80 euros for each bottle delivered. Besides, They have added That without a fair and equitable adaptation of regulated prices, the sector is focused on operating in unsustainable conditions, putting the continuity of the supply at risk. But prices? The maximum sale price of liquefied oil gas (LPG) packaged in Spain is regulated by law And it is reviewed bimonthly by the General Directorate of Energy Policy and Mines, in accordance with the IET/389/2015 order. This regulation affects containers with a load equal to or greater than 8 kg and less than 20 kg, with tara greater than 9 kg. The maximum price incorporates the cost of home supply. And what does the government say? So far, the Executive, represented by the Secretary of State for Energy, Joan Groizard, He has held meetings With the Fedglp to address the situation. However, concrete measures have not yet been announced to update the regulations and meet the demands of the sector. The lack of a specific response from the Spanish government has led distributors to maintain the threat of an indefinite strike in the home delivery service. Impact on consumers. The lack of a solution will affect thousands of homes that depend on this service. In addition, many people need them to take home home either by reduced mobility or age. However, in previous strikes, the Bombones were still available in authorized establishments. However, to have more up -to -date information when this occurs, the recommendation would be to directly contact local points of sale or distributors. An uncertain future. With the possibility, strike in the cast and uncertainty about government measures, butane supply in Spain is in the air. If a solution is not found in the coming weeks, thousands of homes will be affected by the lack of supply.
