Staff of Russian/Georgian JV "Gruzrosenergo" locate damage in Kavkasioni transmission line

Moscow, 10 March 2005. Staff of the Russian/Georgian joint venture "Gruzrosenergo"* have located the damage in the Kavkasioni power transmission line supplying Russian electricity to Georgia. The Company's staff are ready to eliminate the accident, but they have not been able to start the repairs as yet due to adverse weather conditions.

Gruzrosenergo specialists have found that one of the transmission towers of the Kavkasioni line was brought down by an avalanche. Repairs on the transmission tower may only be started after access roads are cleared to the accident site. According to the company, the transmission line will be put back in operation by late March.

Before the forced outage of the transmission line, RAO "UES of Russia" supplied 350 MW of electricity to Georgia daily. Currently, Georgia is experiencing a shortage of electricity. However, "Telasi", the Georgian company controlled by RAO "UES of Russia", is able to maintain electricity supply to Georgia's capital city of Tbilisi by importing electricity from Armenia and supplying power generated at Power Unit No. 9 of the Tbilisskaya TPP, which is also owned by RAO "UES of Russia".

* "Gruzrosenergo" operates the Kavkasioni transmission line. The Company is owned, on a parity basis, by RAO "UES of Russia" and the Republic of Georgia.
