The head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Energy and Housing and Utilities, Andrei Gerus, said that Russia is stopping supplies of thermal coal to Ukraine. It is reported by TASS…
He clarified that such coal was imported to the Ukrainian territory by DTEK (Luganskaya TPP, Krivorozhskaya TPP), Donbassenergo (Slavyanskaya TPP) and Tekhnova (Darnitskaya, Sumy and Chernigovskaya TPPs).
According to him, it “looks like an energy war.” The parliamentarian noted that supplies were suspended on November 1 this year.
The largest thermal generation companies DTEK Energo, Centrenergo and Donbassenergo buy thermal coal from the USA, Poland, Kazakhstan and Russia. At the same time, a coal deficit has been observed in the country since the beginning of the year.
Earlier it was reported: the deputy of the Rada Lyudmila Buimister statedthat Russia is “killing” the energy sector of Ukraine. According to her, the import of electricity from Russia and Belarus is killing both the coal industry and the thermal generation industry.
