In addition, experts cause questions to the format of the transfer of the boiler room - to economic use, instead of the generally accepted practice of concluding a concession agreement. The latter, according to Nazimova, allows the housing and communal services to receive funding not only from the regional and local budgets, but also from a company using a heating source.

“On the one hand, it is clear that the enterprise has no money, but this is not a reason to rob the local population. We have already filed a complaint with the FAS, and the Irkutsk branch of the supervisory authority became interested in this situation,” said a resident of Vikhorevka.

The mayor of Vikhorevka Nikolai Druzhinin told the editorial offices of Siberia. Reali that no one had drove the Energosphere from Vikhorevka, the company decided to leave, and the administration had to solve the problem - as a result, it was decided to transfer the municipal unitary enterprise. Regarding double payments, the mayor asked to contact the new user of the boiler room, but no one answers by municipal unitary enterprise.
