Emilia Romagna: Hera threatens the detachment of entire condominiums from district heating due to default. The going gets tough
Well, good, there were the elections, now let's get back to reality. Between Ferrara and Bologna, in the far north, provinces that are not poor, the multi-utility company HERA has begun to detach entire defaulting condominiums from the district heating network. Dozens of families who do not know how they will be able to warm up in the coming winter.
As the condominium administrators warn, several condominiums have seen the energy costs of district heating tripled in 2022 compared to 2021 .. many condominiums are unable to cope with the additional costs for which several different real estate units have now become arrears as a whole. Some have already received two collection notices and are now moving towards the separation of the thermal service.
However, the condominium administrators themselves contest the decision of the Hera and, above all, neither contest the cost of heating. The heat would be generated not by natural gas, but by geothermal sources and waste-to-energy, and good evening should explain why geothermal sources cost three times as much, and in the same way cost three times more waste collection, unless you do not begin to claim that now it pays to get the waste to be burned by the companies.
The fact remains that condominiums risk remaining cold, adding a widespread social crisis to the crisis already present for economic and productive activities.
There will soon be a uniform and homogeneous government, and this is good. It will be interesting to see how it addresses these huge problems caused by the gas and energy crisis in general.
