Inter RAO suspends supply of electric power to Belarus for debts.
I MOSCOW, June 29 (Itar-Tass) - The Inter RAO Unified Energy Systems
Company has suspended the supply of electric power to Belarus for debts,
an Inter Rao official has confirmed in an Itar-Tass interview.
Inter RAO expected that the Belarusian side would repay the debt
before 08:30, Moscow time, on June 28. However, this did not happen due to
the fact that Belarus had been unable to find enough currency (Russian
roubles) to repay the debt.
The Company official said payment was not forthcoming as of the end of
the day on June 28. Therefore, a "zero delivery schedule" was activated
beginning from Tuesday-Wednesday midnightt. "At 00:00 the System operator
changed the route of deliveries in accordance with a respective
application that we filed on Tuesday morning," the official said.
At the same time, the Inter RAO official emphasized, if money comes
in, the Company "is prepared to resume supply fully within 24 hours".
