In the first half of 2025, DTEK Energy invested approximately UAH 4 billion in repairs and restoration of thermal power plants damaged by massive attacks, which is more than in the whole of 2024, when UAH 3.6 billion was invested, according to the DTEK Communications Department.
According to its release on Friday, during this year’s ongoing repair campaign, a significant amount of work has already been completed, although there is still a lot of work to be done this year and next.
“Our energy workers are restoring not only equipment, but also confidence in the continued reliable operation of thermal power generation and the power system as a whole.
Electricity is the foundation of everything, and we are doing everything possible to ensure that there is enough of it even in the most difficult moments,” commented Alexander Fomenko, CEO of DTEK Energy.
It is noted that since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russia has already struck DTEK’s thermal power plants 205 times. In total, last year, the energy infrastructure survived 13 large-scale attacks. Since February 2022, 56 power plant workers have been injured and four killed in shelling of DTEK Energy’s thermal power plants.
As reported, on the night of July 18, during the shelling of the Dnipropetrovsk region by Russian occupiers, a Ukrzaliznytsia train driver was killed and a DTEK locomotive driver was wounded.
