This was reported by… O. Chairman of the Board of NAEC Energoatom Petr Kotin.
– We currently have eight power units operating. There are no restrictions for two days, because we took two power units out of repair (May 26 and 27, — Ed.), but after two days they come to us the next units are being repaired, and then, I think, Ukrenergo will already introduce restrictions, — he said at a meeting of the Energy Committee of the Verkhovna Rada.
Kotin added that the units that are planned to be taken out for repairs will be returned to work in two months.
