“The season was successful despite everything. Despite all the “prophecies,” the tariffs have not increased. There were no rotating outages. Supplies were not disrupted even in wartime. Preparations have also begun for the next heating season. We discussed the purchase of gas, the purchase of coal,” the President said.
