Gasification remains a strategic direction in the economic policy pursued by the Government of Karelia. According to the Russian Ministry of Energy, the level of gasification in the republic in 2023 was almost 35%.
In accordance with the instructions of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin, work continued on additional gasification of individual residential buildings. It involves free delivery of gas distribution networks to the boundaries of plots in already gasified settlements. In Karelia, the possibility of social gasification has already been created for more than 6,200 households in 31 settlements in the Olonetsky, Prionezhsky, Kondopoga districts and Petrozavodsk.
“The absolute priority is additional gasification of individual houses. Gas has already been supplied free of charge to the borders of more than 300 land plots. We help preferential categories of citizens, including families of SVO participants, with gas communications within the site. As of today, gas has been supplied to 13 houses of this category of citizens, work is underway to connect another 90 households,” noted Artur Parfenchikov.
