RIA Novosti reports, with reference to the representative of the company Philip Ench, that the German concern Siemens has not confirmed the supply to the Crimean peninsula of two more gas turbines for installation at the under construction TPP in Simferopol.

He also clarified that the concern has reason to believe that the turbines delivered to Kamyshovaya Bay of Sevastopol last week were produced at the Siemens plant, but the supply of equipment to the port of Feodosia has not yet confirmed two more pipes.

Ench said: "I can not confirm this at this stage".

Let's remind, earlier the company Siemens has created спецгруппу for investigation of the fact of delivery of turbines in Sevastopol. Later, the concern appealed to the Moscow Arbitration Court with claims about violation of the terms of the contract with "Technopromexport".

For ignoring export restrictions, the company threatened to refuse commissioning and warranty maintenance of turbines, and also demanded their return to the mainland.

Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov clarified that Russian turbines will be installed on the TPPs under construction in Sevastopol and Simferopol, but with elements of foreign production. The contractor involved in their installation is Interautomatica, in which Siemens owns 45.7 percent of the shares. TPPs of 470 megawatts each should be put into operation in the first quarter of 2018.
