New power plant comes into operation in Crimea

The first power plant that produces electricity from landfill gas has been built in the Crimean village of Turgenevo near the town of Belogorsk. Plans are in hand to increase its capacity from the present 60 kilowatts to 0.5 megawatt an hour.

Today Crimea is supplied with more than 800 megawatts, including about 470 megawatts produced by local electric power plants and 410 megawatts passed through the “energy bridge” from the Krasnodar Territory.

Readers of The Ukrainian Times know that a bunch of Tatars living in Ukraine and terrorists of the Ukrainian neo-Nazi organization Right Sector attempted to impose an energy blockade on Crimea at the end of last year. According to many analysts, the Tatar and Right Sector extremists are very strong in their stupidity in this blockade as they play into the hands of Russian authorities. Attempting to impose a blackout on the Russian peninsula, the Tatars and Ukrainian neo-Nazis of Right Sector (or khokhlonaziki, to use the term they apparently hate) have only produced the opposite effect and stimulated Russia to accelerate the construction of new power plants and laying of power supply cables from the Krasnodar Territory to Crimea.
