In 2023, the distribution system operators of DTEK Grids recycled 3.5 thousand tons of various types of waste.
“DTEK Grids operates an efficient waste management system. It is built on the principles of the circular economy and last year alone helped to transfer more than 3.5 thousand tons of various types of waste for recycling,” the energy holding said in a press release on Tuesday.
According to the document, last year, DTEK Grids’ companies in Dnipro, Odesa, Donetsk and Kyiv regions and Kyiv sent about 25% of the total amount of waste for recycling. These include construction materials, used tires, waste paper, glass, office equipment, and oil products.
“Despite the war, our companies continue to implement the principles of the circular economy, in particular, in terms of waste management. They collect waste separately, store it in special conditions and send it for recycling and reuse. Thanks to this, over the past three years, about 20 thousand tons of industrial waste from DTEK Grids’ iron ore production facilities have been given a second life,” said Olena Potapenko, Head of Environmental Safety at DTEK Grids, quoted in the press release.
According to her, for example, more than 15 thousand tons of reinforced concrete pillars were used in construction and for the production of secondary crushed stone.
For separate waste collection, the company’s waste management facilities use more than 2 thousand labeled containers.
“Everything is organized in such a way as to prevent negative impact on the environment and to direct waste for recycling and reuse as much as possible,” the energy holding added.
“DTEK Grids develops the electricity distribution and power grid operation business in Kyiv, Kyiv, Dnipro, Donetsk and Odesa regions. The energy holding’s DSOs serve 5.4 million households and 150,000 enterprises.
