Sevkazenergo employees are currently trying to restore the damaged section.
On January 15 at 6:32 a.m. at Petropavlovsk CHPP-2, the feedwater system was damaged in the deaerator area. The automatic system was activated and turned off the station's main equipment. Specialists are currently working on restoring the system. All work is planned to be completed by 5 p.m., the press office of Sevkazenergo JSC reported.
