Primarul Bucureștiului, despre Termoenergetica: „Am schimbat sigla, dar am păstrat mecanismul care a falimentat RADET”

The mayor of Bucharest, Ciprian Ciucu, revealed that Termoenergetica has accumulated debts of 1.75 billion lei to ELCEN, alongside penalties of 410 million lei. He highlighted that the current heating system retains the same administrative and structural issues that led to the bankruptcy of RADET. Ciucu pointed out that losses from old pipes and reduced energy consumption are significant factors contributing to the financial troubles. He proposed a centralized heating system to unify production and transport under the city's authority, which could help eliminate penalties and facilitate network modernization. Discussions with relevant authorities have led to a new payment formula for debts.
