Duration of Uninterrupted Sitting without Water - Details on Planned Repairs for Heating Systems by the Energy Ministry
Alright, pal! Let's talk about the heat network biz in town, right? The Ministry of Energy is cooking up a plan to replace and build new heat networks by the year 2025, and they've been dropping deets on their Telegram channel.
They've managed to get around 50 kilometers done already, but they've got a long way to go – they're planning for a total of 260 kilometers to be replaced. To find out which networks need a little TLC, they run some ol' hydraulic tests at the end of the heating season.
Now, here's where it gets a bit tricky – they gotta shut off the hot water supply for the whole shebang and the subsequent repairs. The law says the max they can have the water off is 13 days, but they're working hard to get the job done quicker. In many cases, they're even finishing earlier than planned!
So, you're probably wondering – when the heck are we gonna be stuck without water, huh? The first shutoffs started in May and will carry on until June. Minskenergo and Minsk Communal Heat Networks have got schedules all sorted out for Minsk residents – you'll just need to search for your street name in their system.
Stuck on finding your street? No worries! In a browser, click on "Find on page" or use Ctrl + F if you're on Windows. Once you've found your street, you'll be sorted! If everything goes smoothly with the pipeline checks, the hot water will be back flowing in your apartment no later than 13 days after the shutoff.
Keep in mind, though, that for the most accurate and current information, it's best to get in touch with Minskenergo or Minsk Communal Heat Networks directly or check out some local news sources for updates related to these repairs. Stay tuned!
The Ministry of Energy is considering finance options for the energy sector, specifically in the industry of heat network development, as they aim to replace and build new heat networks totalling 260 kilometers by 2025. During the repairs, residents may experience temporary disruptions in their hot water supply, with the first shutoffs starting in May and lasting up to 13 days per shutoff.
