What impact did the generation limitation have on the sector?

Generation restrictions and the state's uneven approach have caused multi-million-dollar losses to the private sector. According to the executive director of the Renewable Energy Development Association, this year was the first time that the principle of equal distribution of responsibility was violated: while private plants were shut down, state-owned facilities did not limit generation. According to preliminary data, the damage caused by generation restrictions amounts to several tens of millions of GEL.

“In 2027, if this problem is not resolved, the sector will be hit even harder. The reality is that there were restrictions during a certain period of May, June and July. The restrictions mean the shutdown of electricity generation facilities. This is precisely the period when we have a period of water scarcity and there is a very high possibility for any electricity generation facility to generate electricity and then ensure its sale. This automatically means that the income of private sector representatives has decreased, they have faced a serious financial risk and problem, which is the fulfillment of obligations assumed by them from commercial banks.
