Russian energy exports to Georgia to restart today

RAO UES will resume electrical energy supplies to Georgia’s capital
Tbilisi at 6 p.m. Moscow time today, Dangiras Mikolayunis, the
General Director of the Tbilisi electrical energy distributing
company TELASI, told journalists. According to him, 100 megawatts of
electrical energy will be imported daily and this will solve the
problem of the energy crisis in Tbilisi and partially in other
regions.

The resumption of imports became possible after the Kartli-2 power
line, which had been damaged in an act of sabotage, was restored.

TELASI has also resumed electrical energy imports from Armenia to
Tbilisi today totaling 100 megawatts per day.
