We are talking about the theft revealed in February. During the construction of facilities of the hydro -accumulating power plant, the general contractor entered into fictitious subcontracting agreements with controlled construction companies, and then the money received to their accounts was cashed out and stolen. In February, the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported that the preliminary amount of damage was estimated at about 1 billion rubles, and the General Contractor was OJSC "Hydostroy". However, later, a source familiar to the construction of the Zagorskaya GAES, told the Prime agency that the damage to theft may be significantly higher.
OJSC "Zagorskaya GAES -2" is a priority project of OJSC "RusHydro". The construction of the second stage of the Zagorskaya hydro -accumulating station is carried out near the current Zagorskaya GAES - a branch of OJSC RusHydro - in the Sergiev Posad district of the Moscow region. The construction readiness of the objects of Zagorskaya GAES-2 today is about 70%. At full capacity, the station will be released in 2014.
