The country’s head addressed journalists on Monday, emphasizing the critical need to significantly increase the capacity of electricity generators. Addressing concerns following recent disruptions, the official stressed the necessity of clarifying compensation procedures to mitigate public anxiety. He noted that previous instances of communication suggesting immediate restoration of services, when actual repairs lagged, created unnecessary distress among residents.
The head stated that such discrepancies in communication must be avoided, adding that those responsible for such lapses must accept accountability. Furthermore, he cautioned against setting unrealistic expectations regarding the speed of recovery from natural disasters. Specifically, he noted that the full effects of the recent storm would not allow for the immediate restoration of electricity supply to all residents within a few days.
In the context of ongoing regional cooperation, the head mentioned that Polish assistance was being extended to Lithuanian counterparts, and discussions concerning the future resilience of the entire electricity network remain active. The statements underscore a commitment to systemic improvements, moving beyond immediate crisis management to address underlying infrastructural vulnerabilities. The focus remains on bolstering the generation capacity to better withstand future extreme weather events, ensuring that procedural transparency accompanies technical upgrades.
