The National Association of Young Entrepreneurs (ANJE) has issued a call for the parties involved to speed up the process towards reaching the decisions needed to sign a pact with the electricity sector that will guarantee efficiency in the production and sale of electric energy. ANJE president Laura Pena Izquierdo said that a serious analysis of the energy situation could not be put off any longer because the country is losing competitiveness due to the high cost of energy. During a television interview she said that foreign investors have pulled out of the country due to high energy and labor costs. She added that the country needs to establish an Energy Pact much like the pact for education, and that this was the only way to go forward.
