The event was attended by heads of PJSC "Rosseti" and chief engineers of all subsidiaries.
Opening the meeting, Alexander Faustov thanked his colleagues for the quality preparation for the current autumn-winter operation period and the timely receipt of certificates of readiness.

Currently, PJSC "Rosseti" has 4 regulatory documents that rule the obligatory availability of emergency reserve and special vehicles with companies, training of first responding and repair teams, their equipment, transport logistics and cooperation between subsidiaries, branches and offices. As technical experts noted in their reports, precise coordination of measures for the prevention and elimination of failures contributes to systematic performance improvement. This is confirmed by the consolidated operating performance of the Group "Rosseti" for 9 months of 2015: compared to the same period last year specific failure rate at electric grid facilities of subsidiaries is 29% lower, 26% less - the number of technological failures, the average duration of interruptions in the power supply reduced by 13%. Today, the national average power restoration time in homes of Russians is within 4 hours.
"We worked through all the technical issues that arose during the preparation for winter maximum temperatures to take into account these details in the next year. Our goal is continuous improvement in performance of the Group Rosseti, and as a result - reliable operation of the electric grid complex of the country," stressed Alexander Faustov.
