Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev addressed energy sector workers today with congratulations on the occasion of their professional holiday.
"This year is an anniversary for the workers of this sector. Exactly 95 years ago the State Plan for the Electrification of Russia was adopted, the famous GOELRO plan. It became a symbol of the era, the starting point in the creation of domestic electricity and at the same time the first science-based and long-term program of development of the national economy,’’ RIA Novosti quotes him as saying.
