WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT BY THE DEPUTY OF ST. JOHN

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 24th MARCH 2009

Question

Would the Minister inform the Assembly of the total annual cost of electricity at the Airport, including any running costs, stating whether consumption is billed through an electric meter or through a contract (and, if so, would he gives details of the contract) and would the Minister also give similar information for Jersey Harbours specifying the breakdown between different areas of the harbours.

Answer

The total cost of electricity to Jersey Airport in 2008 was £682,378.28, with £275,440.07 recovered from their customers.

The total cost of electricity to Jersey Harbours was £573,086, with £409,066 recovered from their customers.

As a high voltage consumer, the Airport has a negotiated contract with the JEC. Consumption is billed by meter at the Harbour. Tenants or users who consume electricity are then metered and billed quarterly at both the Airport and Harbours.

The figures for Jersey Harbours can be broken down as follows:

Port of Jersey: E x p e n d i tu r e - £ 3 1 7 ,5 3 8 R e c h a rged - £250,822 Jersey Marinas: E x p e n d i tu r e - £ 2 3 0 ,0 15 R e c h a rged - £158,244 Corporate (including Coastguard): E xpenditure - £ 25,533
