For the first time, Ukrzaliznytsia purchased electricity directly from the manufacturer – the state power generating company NNEGC Energoatom, the chairman of the board of Ukrzaliznytsia Volodymyr Zhmak wrote in his Telegram channel, Interfax-Ukraine reports.

“Yesterday, Ukrzaliznytsia through its supplier Energo Sbyt Trans (a subsidiary of UZ), for the first time, purchased electricity from the producer, the state energy generating company Energoatom. Thus, UZ acquired 25% of the 389,675 MWh put up for the auction,” he noted.
