announced<\/a>\u00a0that the Kuchurgan power plant will produce electricity using coal. The decision was taken in order to save natural gas. Last night, the plant switched back to gas.<\/p>\n\nAt the same time, the Transnistrian administration said that the hotline of the so-called Ministry of Interior, created in the context of the energy crisis, was closed as the number of calls decreased to a minimum.<\/p>\n\n
The hotline was used since December 25, 2024 and more than 18,000 calls were made to it since then.
