Earlier, it was reported that the energy crisis in Transnistria caused by the suspension of gas supplies has affected the electricity supply of the entire country. Chisinau no longer receives cheap electricity from Transnistria, as the MGRES is now running on coal to meet the region's needs. The 600 MW energy deficit is covered by local production and imports from Romania and Ukraine.
