From January to March 2025, DTEK Energy invested ca. UAH 1.2 billion in repair and restoration of its TPPs severely damaged by large-scale missile attacks. This figure represents a third of the company’s total investment in TPP recovery over 2024.
The repair campaign is ongoing as the level of destruction from enemy strikes remains critically high. As of summer 2024, 90% of DTEK’s thermal generation capacities had been either damaged or destroyed. Power engineers managed to restore over half of the output before winter, but renewed mass attacks in November and December caused further serious damage.
“Our main goal today is to keep moving forward and intensify recovery efforts. We are working hard to prepare for peak summer loads and the upcoming heating season,”
emphasised Oleksandr Fomenko, CEO of DTEK Energy.
In 2024, the company invested UAH 3.6 billion in thermal power plant restoration and another UAH 7.5 billion in domestic coal production.
Background
