Most government institutions have increased their power consumption despite the presidential mandate to reduce consumption by 10% this year. A report in Listin Diario says that monitoring by the National Energy Commission (CNE) found that of 137 government entities, only 28 showed savings above RD$100,000 in reduction in their power consumption. Most of the government entities, on the contrary, showed increases of up to RD$365,000 in their billings, as reported in the newspaper. In March 2011, President Fernandez set the target for a 10% decrease in power consumption this year.
