KYIV, Nov 3 – Transmission system operator NPC Ukrenergo said the reason for activation of emergency assistance from Belarus and Slovakia in power supply on November 2 was the lack of capacity in the Integrated Power System of Ukraine and in Burshtyn TPP Island due to increased accidents at power units of thermal power plants (TPPs).
