Bogdan Ivan, the energy minister, decided to send the control body to the Complex Energetic Valea Jiului after a transformer fire left 300 miners trapped underground without ventilation and without an evacuation plan. Ivan was surprised by the lack of back-up generators for such situations and set up a working group with the Emergency Situations Department to draw up safety procedures, ensuring that such incidents will not be repeated in the future.
