Not a peep from the environmentalists....wasting natural resources is of no concern to Russia
Russia burns large amounts of gas amid supply cuts to Europe
An orange beacon of gas has been burning on the Finnish border for months. At the same time, Europe is struggling to fulfil its energy needs.
Russia has been wasting vast amounts of natural gas while cutting its supplies to Europe, analysts from the Norwegian energy consultancy Rystad Energy revealed on Friday.
Satellite images of the Portovaya compression station show a huge flare as large amounts of gas are burned off.
The facility is close to the border with Finland and is part of the network that feeds the Nord Stream 1 pipeline bringing gas into Germany. Flows through the pipeline have been reduced to just 20% of its capacity.
