There are still faults on several lines in the Alytus region (Varėna and Druskininkai territories). ESO states that generators are transported to connect at least individual sections of lines.
“However, it is likely that tomorrow several hundred consumers will be without electricity. There are sections where the lines are broken in dozens of points, dozens of trees have fallen on them in different places, after restoring the lines in some places, the trees break into others, new faults are formed.
Sometimes the same line must be rebuilt four times. Only the most difficult sections were left messy. When it comes to reaching the most remote fault locations, the vehicles and even the cars of the assistant firefighters get stuck, the tractors delivered by the elderly too, ”the report says.
