Key Challenges:
- Expired Labor Contracts: The expiration of distributed labor contracts is a major concern for the ministry.
- Maintenance Delays: Approval for maintenance tenders for stations and projects is stalled due to the absence of the Central Tenders Agency.
- Material Shortages: Delays in awarding supply tenders have resulted in a lack of essential materials within some ministry departments.
These issues are particularly worrisome as summer approaches, a time of peak energy demand. The reliance on approvals from regulatory and financial authorities, specifically the Central Tenders Agency, further complicates the situation.
