UNITED POWER COMPANY JSC is one of the first electrical grid companies established within the framework of reforming electrical power engineering industry in the Russian Federation. As a result of reforms, electrical grid, distribution and generating companies have been selected as independently functioning units. As the practice shows, the present-day structure of electrical power engineering industry is, according to the opinion of many people, extremely tangled and unclear. Frequently the directors of major organisations do not know who they are to work with and who they should apply on electrical power supply issues. On the company’s web site, we have tried to answer some questions as well as show the UPC JSC’s industry branch role.
