La Fundaci\u00f3n McKnight sabe que las personas y el planeta van de la mano. A medida que avanzamos hacia una econom\u00eda pr\u00f3spera basada en energ\u00eda limpia, debemos invertir en soluciones que realmente marquen una diferencia en la vida de las personas, como la creaci\u00f3n de empleos bien remunerados, la reducci\u00f3n de las facturas de energ\u00eda de las familias y la mejora de la calidad del aire y el agua a nivel local.<\/p>\n

El viernes 3 de octubre, el La Comisi\u00f3n de Servicios P\u00fablicos de Minnesota aprob\u00f3 por unanimidad la venta de ALLETE, con sede en Duluth.<\/a>, la empresa matriz de Minnesota Power, que presta servicio a 145.000 clientes en el noreste de Minnesota. La adquisici\u00f3n por parte de Global Infrastructure Partners, filial de BlackRock, y la Junta Canadiense de Inversiones en Planes de Pensiones (Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board), se produce en medio del creciente inter\u00e9s de firmas de capital privado que buscan invertir en proveedores locales de energ\u00eda.<\/p>\n

La tendencia de las empresas a adquirir servicios esenciales como la vivienda, la agricultura y, ahora, los servicios p\u00fablicos es preocupante cuando el objetivo es \u00fanicamente maximizar las ganancias, lo que, en el peor de los casos, podr\u00eda llevar a los nuevos propietarios a subir las tarifas y reducir el servicio. Ahora tenemos la oportunidad de mostrarle al pa\u00eds lo que la propiedad privada responsable de una importante empresa el\u00e9ctrica puede ofrecer a las personas y al planeta en nuestro camino hacia un futuro de energ\u00eda limpia para todos. No tenemos que elegir entre las ganancias y el apoyo a las comunidades y trabajadores locales, ni entre la energ\u00eda limpia y la asequibilidad.<\/p>\n

Agradecemos a nuestro beneficiario y a nuestros socios comunitarios que trabajaron junto a tantos compatriotas de Minnesota para asegurar fondos para energ\u00eda limpia y asequible para los clientes de Minnesota Power en esta venta. \u00bfPor qu\u00e9 es importante? Los precios de la electricidad est\u00e1n aumentando actualmente<\/a> El gasto en alimentos es el doble de r\u00e1pido que la inflaci\u00f3n, y uno de cada tres estadounidenses dice que se ha saltado necesidades b\u00e1sicas del hogar, como alimentos y medicamentos. pagar sus facturas de servicios p\u00fablicos<\/a>. Porque la energ\u00eda e\u00f3lica y solar siguen siendo las fuentes m\u00e1s baratas y r\u00e1pidas de nueva electricidad<\/a>Son la soluci\u00f3n para satisfacer la creciente demanda de energ\u00eda y, al mismo tiempo, mantener bajas las facturas. Tambi\u00e9n aplaudimos otras cl\u00e1usulas de conciliaci\u00f3n que preservan los contratos laborales vigentes y retienen a los directores independientes y al liderazgo local.<\/p>\n

Es crucial que Minnesota Power siga siendo una empresa de servicios p\u00fablicos regulada por la Comisi\u00f3n de Servicios P\u00fablicos de Minnesota. La Fundaci\u00f3n McKnight insta a la Comisi\u00f3n, as\u00ed como a los defensores de los consumidores, los trabajadores y las energ\u00edas limpias, a seguir alzando su voz en favor de estos bienes p\u00fablicos vitales, independientemente de su titularidad.<\/p>\n

Es fundamental garantizar que los compromisos en la venta se cumplan plenamente y abordar las preocupaciones justificadas de los consumidores, especialmente a la luz de subvenciones federales recientemente canceladas<\/a>Podemos mantener tarifas asequibles, apoyar a los trabajadores y mejorar la confiabilidad y la resiliencia, en parte invirtiendo en energ\u00eda limpia e infraestructura de transmisi\u00f3n muy necesaria.<\/p>\n

A medida que avanza la venta, debemos asegurarnos de que los nuevos propietarios prioricen las comunidades locales y el medio ambiente, ya que son inseparables. Tambi\u00e9n debemos asegurarnos de que, a medida que las tecnolog\u00edas emergentes, como la IA y los centros de datos que las impulsan, sigan creciendo, satisfagamos la demanda con energ\u00eda limpia y sigamos priorizando a los habitantes de Minnesota, para que todos tengan lo necesario para una vida saludable y asequible.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
