The main reason for the fall in financial indicators was the destruction of the production complex in the city of Shebekino, Belgorod Region. In mid-2023, artillery shelling significantly damaged the infrastructure and a significant part of the technological equipment of the enterprise. The company estimates direct losses from the shutdown of the plant at ₽3 billion.

By the end of 2024, management managed to restore only 30% of production capacity. The launch of an additional 30% of production lines is expected no earlier than mid-2025. President of the Energomer concern Vladimir Polyakov said earlier that it would take two years to fully restore production.

The sanctions restrictions dealt an additional blow to the concern's business. The company missed another ₽2 billion due to the impossibility of purchasing sapphire pastes for polishing from, and USA Japan countries. European Union Sanctions against the company were imposed in early 2023, which significantly limited access to critical supplies.^[1]

History

2025: The Ministry of Industry and Trade found Chinese chips in Russian electric meters, but they should not be so

In June 2025, it became known that the Ministry of Industry and Trade initiated an inspection of electric meters manufactured by Energomer Electric Plants JSC for the use of non-Russian microcircuits in them. The agency suspects violations of the requirements of the register of domestic products. The head of the department of the radio-electronic industry of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Yuri Plyasunov in May 2025 instructed the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Russia to conduct field inspections of enterprises.

According to Vedomosti, microcircuits from NEK Those LLC and Jies-Nanotech JSC, part of the GS Group, are also subject to verification. The order is based on a collective appeal dated April 21, 2025 with information on signs of unreliability of information in the register of Russian industrial products.

Single-phase multifunctional electricity meters CE207 R7 and three-phase multifunctional CE307 R34 manufactured by Energomera came under suspicion. Both devices are included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and scored 117 points each with the minimum required 113 points to recognize domestic products.

Three types of microcircuits are used in the Energomera electric meters - GSN0726 from GS Nanotech, as well as K1986VU024 and K1987G1VO14 from NEC Tech. Only the first chip is in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, there are no NEC tech chips.

In April 2025, materials were published in the media with the analysis of the electronic component base of the Energomera meters. It was reported that the SYe207 R7 meter uses chips from the Taiwanese company Vango instead of the declared Russian components.

From January 1, 2022, energy sales companies are required to install domestic individual electricity metering devices. To be included in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade in 2025, the electric meter must have a Russian central microcontroller, assembly in Russia, an ADC chip, printed circuit boards and memory chips of domestic production.

Russian companies lost the ability to produce devices after the Taiwanese TSMC joined anti-Russian sanctions. The company was the main vendor for the manufacture of microcontrollers for domestic topology, said Natalya Ready, executive secretary of the Insist energo working group.^[2]
