The last ten years have greatly taken their toll on the service conditions associated with electricity in Damascus; according to a research study prepared by researchers Sinan Hatahet and Karam Shaar, the per capita consumption of state electricity is now 15 percent less of what it was in 2010.
The long time it takes for the gas messages to be received is causing a great crisis in the homes of Damascus and its countryside, as the Public Establishment for Refining and Distribution (PERD) set fuel allocations per household at 200 liters on the Smart Card, to be distributed into four batches of 50 liters each.
The company, however, only obtained 8.2 million cubic meters of gas. The research study had summarized the reasons behind the problem of electricity shortage in Syria due to the inadequate recovery of the transmission network in the destroyed areas and the lack of fuel needed to operate the power plants.
In 2004 it issued a loan of USD 240 million to finance the expansion of Deir Ali power plant, and USD 280 million for the construction of new power plant in Deir al-Zor. US sanctions on Syria in August 2011 contributed to the fuel procurement crisis the electricity sector has experienced.
74 In 2000 and 2001, the bank financed the electricity transmission and distribution network with USD 214 million. In 2004 it issued a loan of USD 240 million to finance the expansion of Deir Ali power plant, and USD 280 million for the construction of new power plant in Deir al-Zor.
The Syrian electricity sector was a state-owned monopoly, and the main contributor to the sector was and still is the Ministry of Electricity (Figure 1). In 2010, the government started to encourage private investment in the sector but nothing had come of this by the time war broke out.
