Pavlohradvuhillia and Bilozerska mines, which are part of DTEK Energy, produced 15.2 million tonnes of coal in January-November 2021, which corresponds to the same production volume for the same period in 2020, the press service reported.
In November 2021, production amounted to about 1.5 million tonnes against 1.3 million tonnes in November 2020 (excluding Dobropilliavuhillia, already returned from lease).
DTEK Energy commissioned 28 new longwalls at its mines in 11 months, in November – five.
“DTEK Energy continues to produce maximum coal at its own mines. This is very important for the stability of the Ukrainian energy system during peak periods of consumption. In November, we produced about 1.5 million tonnes of G grade coal and put into operation five new longwalls. Also, the Dniprovske and Heroiv Kosmosu mine administrations have fulfilled the annual production plan ahead of schedule and continue to increase it to the maximum,” CEO of the company Ildar Saleev said.
As reported, DTEK Energy plans to ensure the production of about 17 million tonnes of coal in 2021.
DTEK Energy is an operating company responsible for coal extraction and enrichment, maintenance of mine equipment and power generation in the structure of DTEK Holding of Rinat Akhmetov.
