Uzbekistan returns 145.6 million kilowatt hours of electricity to Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan imported 145.6 million kilowatt hours of electricity from Uzbekistan. For this, Kyrgyzstan paid Uzbekistan only 1.2 thousand soms. Most likely, it is to compensate for the electricity that Uzbekistan withheld in the winter, instead of transiting it to the Kyrgyz energy system. 

The payment was made only for the transit of electricity, 24.kg writes with reference to the Kyrgyz National Statistics Committee.

It should be reminded that in December last year, Uzbekistan borrowed electricity supplied by Turkmenistan to Kyrgyzstan during the cold winter days.
