Polish authorities comment on the emergency, emerged at the country's largest thermal power plant. We are talking about the Rogovetskaya power plant (she is Belkhatovskaya), which was stopped 17 May. The shutdown of the thermal power plant raised questions among the Polish public. The main question was related to, for what reasons the operator stopped the operation of the TPP (the station is located in the Łódź Voivodeship).
Today, the Deputy Minister for Climate and Environment of the Polish Republic, Piotr Dziadzio, made an explanation on this issue.. According to a Polish government official, shutdown of the largest thermal power plant in the country occurred as a result of human error.
Polish government official:
There was a drop in frequency due to a power surge in the system. The cause of the accident is human error. We will make efforts, to prevent something like this. Now there is no shortage of power, but in the end it was lost 3,64 GW of electricity.
Jiadzio confirmed, that on Monday all were stopped 10 power units of TPP in Rogovets.
The station operator, PSE, announced that, that by now the energy system of the country is “balanced”, including by launching additional generation at other capacities, as well as with the help of deliveries from Germany, Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Today, the Deputy Minister for Climate and Environment of Poland, during a speech in the country's parliament, said, that Poland remains a major exporter of electricity, which sometimes leads to "overabundance of energy in internal networks". According to him, this can lead to overvoltage in the network and power outages.
Meanwhile, Polish experts believe, that there have been no large investments in the Polish energy system for a long time, which is why it crashes.
In this regard, one can only wonder, how did it happen, that in Poland they still haven’t started talking about the notorious “Russian trace”, which recently it has become customary to explain any miscalculations and incidents in Europe…
