The deteriorating weather conditions led to several days of power supply interruptions in a number of settlements throughout the country. On this occasion, the Energy and Water Regulatory Commission immediately begins an extraordinary inspection of the three electricity distribution companies and the "Electricity System Operator" /ESO/.

The Commission's experts will verify the implementation of the companies' license obligations based on documents and on site, including, first of all, the implementation of their investment programs for development, maintenance and repair activities on the network.

In connection with the assigned inspection, the companies must submit to the EWRC a full analysis of the actual reasons for the disrupted electricity supply in the affected settlements and identify specific short-term measures to improve the condition of the entire network in difficult weather conditions.

The results of the extraordinary inspection will be summarized in a report of the Commission. Based on the findings and conclusions, the regulator will assess, in accordance with the requirements of the Energy Act, whether there are grounds for taking administrative measures in relation to the inspected companies.

The results of the extraordinary inspection of the EWRC will be announced publicly.
