China stopped buying electricity from Russia on Jan. 1 and is unlikely to resume imports this year, Russian newspaper Kommersant reported. China declined to import even the minimum contracted volume of 12 megawatts under a long-term agreement with Russia’s Inter RAO, the newspaper said. The contract, signed in 2012 between China’s State Grid Corporation and Inter RAO, runs until 2037 and envisages total electricity supplies of about 100 billion kilowatt-hours.
