The PP wants to facilitate the implementation of photovoltaic panels in residential buildings in Badajoz for self-consumption and will present a proposal to its government partner, Cs, to discount IBI and ICIO taxes to the maximum allowed (50%) to those Badajoz who choose for its installation in the city. The goal is for it to come into force on January 1.

In this way, the popular propose a new energy saving measure added to those promoted by the government of Pedro Sánchez.

The first deputy mayor and local coordinator of the PP in the city, Antonio Cavacasillas, presented the measure to the media this morning to negotiate it later with Cs. The idea is to take it to full in the next sessions, since they have begun to study the numbers in the Department of Finance, which also depends on the PP.

The installation of plates is a request from the residents of the Old Town, who see their attempts to install this system rejected due to heritage regulations. Cavacasillas assured that the Department of Urbanism, dependent on Cs, is working on it. But he indicated that it is not only necessary to modify the Special Plan for the Protection of the Historic Center, but also that Heritage regulations have an influence. «The objective is that the plates can be placed in all the neighborhoods of Badajoz to save energy and alleviate the pockets of the inhabitants of Badajoz».

In this way, they want to join the energy saving measures. “But not with authoritarian measures that nobody understands and that entail an anger among merchants, hoteliers and the rest of the activities.”

Cavacasillas has recalled some of the decisions adopted by the local government of the PP in recent terms, such as “the installation of LED streetlights and their intelligent management with the replacement of more than 18,000 luminaires that have led to energy savings of 70%. To save energy you don’t have to have the city in the dark, you just have to manage the resources », he said.

In addition, he pointed out this Wednesday other actions aimed at reducing Co2 emissions and consuming less fuel, such as the gradual replacement of electric buses.
