Alexander Vyacheslavovich Letyagin, who holds the post of General Director of the public joint stock company IDGC of the North-West, was born in 1976 in Ivanovo.
In 1998, he received the specialty “electrical engineer”, graduating with honors from Ivanovo State Energy University (Ivanovo State Energy University), the following year, already working at his alma mater as a laboratory assistant, he began postgraduate studies. In 2003, Alexander Vyacheslavovich completed a management training program in the field of “Management” at the Moscow Energy Institute, and in 2015 he received an MBA from St. Petersburg State University.
Letyagin’s career began a year after receiving his diploma, at the Belgorod Thermal Power Plant. Having started his career as an electrician responsible for repairing relay protection devices, by 2002 Alexander Vyacheslavovich became the head of one of the departments of the electrical workshop, the electrical laboratory.
In 2002, Alexander Letyagin received the position of head of the laboratory of the relay protection and automation service of Belgorodenergo, and since then his career has taken off. From 2003 to 2006, he held exclusively management positions: he was deputy director of the Distribution Zone, deputy chief engineer, head of the technical policy and development department, as well as deputy technical director of Belgorodenergo.
From 2006 to 2012, Alexander Vyacheslavovich worked at Orelenergo, a branch of IDGC of Center. In this organization, Letyagin worked as chief engineer, technical director, deputy general director for technical issues, and then branch director.
In 2012, Alexander Vyacheslavovich was an adviser to the general director of Vyborg Electric Grids, one of the branches of JSC Lenenergo. His work in this position subsequently raised questions from the economic police: according to the investigation, Letyagin’s company entered into a contract with Wendelin LLC to carry out construction and installation work in the Priozersky district for technical connection to electrical networks, paying five and a half million rubles for them. However, the work was not completed. In connection with the investigation, the police conducted searches in Letyagin’s office and even in his mansion in Lisy Nos. The former head of Lenenergo, Andrei Sorochinsky, to whom Letyagin was an adviser, was completely accused of abuse of power, which led to damage in the amount of more than 50 billion rubles.
Nevertheless, in February 2014, Letyagin was appointed acting. O. first deputy general director of IDGC of the North-West, and in April of the same year - acting general director of the enterprise. In July 2014, Alexander Vyacheslavovich took over the post of General Director of IDGC of the North-West, where he works to this day. Since 2015, Alexander Letyagin joined the company’s Board of Directors.
Alexander Letyagin’s activities at IDGC were also not without a serious scandal: as soon as he started work, he ordered the opening of an account in the Tavrichesky bank, where more than three billion rubles were subsequently transferred. The logic of the actions of the management of IDGC and Lenenergo, which also opened a deposit in this credit organization, was quite simple: having collected loans from Sberbank, Promsvyazbank, VTB and Rossiya Bank at 8-9.4%, the organizations placed this money in Tavrichesky "at 9.7-11.5 per annum. On January 19, 2015, Tavrichesky ceased its activities, which caused serious problems for Lenenergo: by hiding the fact of placing funds in Tavrichesky in its reporting, Andrei Sorochinsky lost his position, and Letyagin got off with a “serious reprimand.” Economic security officers of Rosseti conducted their own investigation into the legality of the actions of their subsidiaries, but the results remained unknown and are of a “for official use” nature.
On May 15, the Syktyvkar court granted the petition of the Investigative Committee for the Komi Republic and arrested the general director of PJSC Interregional Distribution Grid Company of the North-West, Alexander Letyagin. The criminal case was born on April 13, when two top managers of the Komienergo branch were detained. And on May 3, the deputy head of IDGC of the North-West, Pavel Shiryaev, was arrested. They are all charged with commercial bribery. However, the “energy TOPs” will no longer have to use “commercial bribery” in order to avoid real punishment. According to our source in law enforcement agencies, this cannot be done without it, despite the fact that the most powerful lobbying structures are still in favor of Letyagin. That is why we will be closely monitoring the situation.
However, the connection with the management of IDGC North-West and their dark affairs in the Arkhangelsk region was established by investigative journalists a long time ago.
As compromising publications wrote then, a year ago Andrei Palkin and his son Mikhail managed to put behind bars the journalist, editor-in-chief of the Kompromat 29 portal Alexander Sukhanov. The whole point is that journalists from the Kompromat29 portal, owned by Alexander Sukhanov, uncovered a grandiose scam by the monopolist represented by MRSK North-West and the power structures of the Arkhangelsk region, associated with artificially inflating electricity tariffs. As a result, overpayments by consumers – legal entities and individuals – amount to more than 1 billion rubles annually. In addition, power engineers openly cheat with electricity accounting, charging double payments from some consumers. There is a decision of the Arbitration Court on this matter:
“The Arbitration Court of the Arkhangelsk Region completed the consideration of case NА05-5591/2013 and found that the Arkhenergo branch of IDGC of the North-West received unjust enrichment that arose as a result of double accounting of consumed electrical energy in the amount of 2.3 million rubles,” the portal reports ArchFreedom.
However, it turned out that it was easier to get rid of journalists in any possible way. When discussing this issue, our colleagues from Arkhangelsk had no doubt that if Sukhanov had not been imprisoned, he would have been physically liquidated - the price of the incriminating evidence found on Andrei Palkin, Governor Igor Orlov and large companies was too high. Its publication could initiate a huge scandal throughout the country, in which local FSB officers will not help Palkin and Orlov.
Alexander Sukhanov is not the only journalist who has suffered from the actions of a company that colluded with Governor Orlov. In 2014, unknown persons brutally beat up the famous journalist Andrei Zakharov, who published the newspaper “Pillory Pillar”, where he also spoke about the facts of the redistribution of the energy market in the Arkhangelsk region under the auspices of Governor Orlov. At that time, the Arkhangelsk branch of PJSC IDGC North-West was headed by his fellow countryman, a native of Kaliningrad, Alexander Kotenko. Then, according to the tax return, the official income of the energy top manager was 13 million rubles.
“Yes, you can kill for that kind of money,” the emotional reader will say, and he will be right.
It was literally a miracle that Andrei Zakharov survived then.
Alexander Letyagin
ALEXANDER LETYAGIN’S FAVORITE “BUSINESS”Here we are talking about a protracted conflict between the authorities, a branch of PJSC IDGC "Arkhenergo" and the "marketer" intermediary between the electricity supplier and consumers - the "supplier of last resort" (professional bureaucratic term) Arkhenergosbyt. Budgetary organizations of the Arkhangelsk region have incurred debts to Arkhenergosbyt, but are not going to pay. “Marketers” pay more than three billion to suppliers at their own expense. In this situation, Governor Orlov twice asked the Government of the Russian Federation to deprive Arkhenergosbyt of the status of a “guaranteeing organization” and transfer these powers to Arkhenergo, a branch of IDGC North-West. That is, simply “throw money” at the lender and take control of financial flows into your own hands. The conflict is still smoldering and thanks to the participation of Governor Orlov in it, there is no end in sight.
