Sevastopol will supply electricity to Crimea
Sevastopol will transmit electricity to the regions of Crimea after the Balaklava Thermal Power Plant is commissioned at full capacity, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This was reported by the IKS TV channel.
“By the end of the year, with the commissioning of two combined cycle plants at the Balaklava Thermal Power Plant with a capacity of 235 MW, an excess power balance will be created - about 651 MW, which will allow the transfer of electricity to other areas of the peninsula,” said Mikhail Tarasova, director of the municipal services department, at a staff meeting in the city government.
He added that in the period 2013-2017, the balance of power and electricity in Sevastopol was characterized as deficient, and its own maximum consumption reached 286 MW.
Let us recall that at the end of 2015, Ukraine, through the hands of extremists from the Mejlis, stopped the supply of electricity to Crimea. The peninsula lived for a month in a regime of severe energy shortages, until Russia built an energy bridge across the Kerch Strait.
In October, two thermal power plants began operating in Crimea, which will fully cover the republic’s electricity needs.
