Speaking of the already functional Isaccea-Vulcanesti interconnection, which became operational after the synchronization of Ukraine and Moldova's grids with ENTSO-E on March 16, 2022, the minister said that it was a saver in the dire time that followed the November 2022 move of Gazprom to limit gas supplies to the Republic of Moldova and when energy was unavailable because of the war in Ukraine.
