Russia: court turns down RUSAL’s suit against Unipro

The Moscow Arbitration Court has turned down a 174-million ruble suit of RUSAL Bratsk, a subsidiary of Russian aluminum giant UC RUSAL, against power producer Unipro over a malfunction at the Berezovskaya GRES power plant.

In its suit, RUSAL Bratsk asked the court to cancel a capacity supply agreement signed in 2010 and make Unipro redeem the unfair benefit to the company.

RUSAL Bratsk wanted the company to return the payments the smelter made from February 1, 2016 – when the third power unit of the Berezovskaya GRES malfunctioned – until October 2016, when it was officially acknowledged that the unit’s power production stood at zero. (Prime/Ukrainian metal)
