The company's power engineers and repair technicians continue to make every effort to promptly remedy the consequences of Russian strikes and quickly restore the damaged TPP capacities.
To this end, DTEK Energy has allocated an estimated UAH 1.4+ billion from its own budget since the beginning of the year. Overall, the company is set to invest nearly UAH 3.9 billion in repair and recovery efforts this year, on par with 2023.
"We definitely realise the weight on the shoulders of power engineers. And they do feel this responsibility before every Ukrainian, especially in the lead-up to the next heating season, which is set to be another unprecedented challenge. We are making every effort to restore everything we can as soon as possible. At this scale of destruction, recovery is going to be gradual, starting before the heating season and continuing through the winter into 2025," said Ildar Salieiev, CEO of DTEK Energy.
For reference
Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, DTEK Energy's thermal power plants have been attacked by the enemy over 180 times. In the last three months alone, the enemy has launched seven massive attacks on the company's thermal power plants. As a result of the shelling, about 90% of DTEK's thermal generation capacities have been destroyed or damaged. According to preliminary estimates, approximately UAH 14-16 billion ($350-400 million) will be needed to restore the capacities damaged by the attacks. This amount covers the damage to equipment and the cost of repair work.
