The relations Belarusian and Russian authorized commercial entities maintain in the course of activating and deactivating power grid equipment and energy generators and in the course of operating this equipment during emergencies are addressed. The document also provides for ensuring a balance of the active power of the Belarusian power grid and the Russian one in cases of extreme misbalance of active power due to the disconnection of energy generators. Apart from that, the terminology used by the agreement will be brought into compliance with the Eurasian Economic Union Treaty of 29 May 2014.

The protocol’s realization will allow improving security and reliability of parallel operation of Belarus’ joint energy system and Russia’s.
