Last week’s publication of the investigation report on the awarded contracts to the Electrogas Consortium by Enemalta by the National Audit Office has removed any form of doubt raised by the Opposition on the project during the recent years. Since 2013, the Opposition has questioned the need for a new power plant for electricity generation in Malta. Back in the days when he was still Opposition leader, Simon Busuttil had mentioned numerous times that “a new power plant for electricity generation in Malta is not needed” since, according to him, the Interconnector project was enough to sustain Malta’s energy requirements.
