The managers of ICS Gaz Natural Fenosa Furnizare Energie SRL, ICS Red Union Fenosa SA, SA Furnizare Energie Electrica Nord, IS Moldelectrica, SA Red Nord and SA Red Nord Vest informed the Ministry of Economy that they extended the deadline for collecting bids to supply electrical power until March 27. The decision was taken given the absence of guaranteed bids to supply electricity in full amount for the period between April 1, 2017 and March 31, 2018, IPN has learned from the Ministry of Economy.

As no national or foreign companies submitted guaranteed bids to supply power in full amount, the managers of the aforementioned companies decided to extend the bidding deadline, expressing their confidence that potential supplies will adjust their bids in the immediate future amid transparent competition in the bidding process.

Minister of Economy Octavian Calmaca said the Ministry is attentively monitoring the regional developments in the energy sector and the process of organizing the procedures for purchasing electrical energy so as to ensure the country’s energy security in the most advantageous conditions, including as regards the reliability and security of supplies during the contractual period.
