The Ministry of Energy blocked the decision of the Supervisory Board of the Market Council to deprive Makhal-Energo of the status of a participant in the wholesale energy market, Kommersant writes. This is the first time a company exclusion veto has been used. The office confirmed the decision and said that additional measures will be examined at the meeting of the supervisory board on November 19. According to the publication's sources, the status can be restored as early as December 1, but legal uncertainty is created since the current regulations do not establish a separate procedure for restoration.
