DTEK Energy’s machine builders manufactured over 3,000 pieces of mining equipment in January-November this year, including eight new roadheaders, one mine fan, and 10 electric motors, according to the company’s press release.
In addition, over 2.2 million spare parts and components were manufactured during this period.
“We are all working towards one goal – to get through this, already the fourth, winter of war. Ukrainian machine builders are also working hard to meet the equipment needs of Ukrainian mines. This is our stability, first and foremost, during the heating season,” said DTEK Energy CEO Oleksandr Fomenko in the statement.
As reported, since the beginning of 2025, DTEK Energy has invested UAH 6.1 billion in Ukrainian coal mining. In 2024, investments in Ukrainian mines amounted to about UAH 7.5 billion, and over the past three years (2022-2024) – more than UAH 18 billion.
DTEK Energy provides a closed cycle of electricity production from coal. As of January 2022, the company’s installed thermal generation capacity was 13.3 GW. A complete production cycle has been created in coal mining: coal extraction and enrichment, machine building, and maintenance of mining equipment.
The DTEK Group is the largest private investor in Ukraine’s energy sector, with 55,000 employees and more than EUR 12 billion of capital invested since 2005. It is wholly owned by SCM Holdings, with Rinat Akhmetov as the ultimate beneficiary and sole shareholder.
