A major poultry farm has disconnected from the Edenorte, preferring to operate using its own power plant. And the northern chapter of the Dominican Association of Free Zones protests the high billing of Edenorte, which has the concession to distribute power in the northern region. Adozona members complain that after the company installed new meters, billings increased considerably. The chicken producer says he disconnected because he was tired of paying for blackouts.
