DTEK Energy’s machine builders manufactured and repaired 640 units of mining equipment between January and April of this year, including five new roadheaders and longwall shearers and three electric motors, according to a company press release.
During this period, they also produced over 600,000 spare parts and components.
As previously reported, over the first four months of last year, 1,136 units of mining equipment (including three new longwall shearers) and 735,000 spare parts and components were manufactured and repaired.
“The stability of the power grid, especially during the most severe winters like the one we recently experienced, is built through proactive daily work. Our machine builders are already manufacturing and repairing the equipment, components, and spare parts necessary for the more reliable operation of Ukraine’s coal mining industry. This contributes to the reliability of the mines, the power grid, and readiness for the challenges of the coming season,” DTEK Energy CEO Oleksandr Fomenko is quoted as saying in the press release.
In turn, one of the company’s machine-building assets—Korum Druzhkivka Machine-Building Plant (Dnipro)—reported on Facebook that in January–April it manufactured 88 GSO units and 294,900 components and spare parts, as well as repaired one KPD roadheader. Last year during this period, 106 GSO units were manufactured, two KPD roadheaders were refurbished, and over 286,000 components were produced.
DTEK Energy ensures a closed-loop coal-to-electricity production cycle. Installed capacity in thermal power generation is 13.3 GW (as of January 2022). A complete production cycle has been established in coal mining: coal extraction and enrichment, machine building, and maintenance of mining equipment.
As noted in the report, according to preliminary data, in January–April 2026, DTEK Energy invested approximately UAH 5 billion in preparations for summer consumption peaks and the upcoming heating season.
“The company allocated the bulk of the funds to a repair campaign and restoration work following enemy attacks, as well as to ensuring more reliable operation of thermal power generation and coal enterprises,” the press release states.
The company’s investments in repairs and restoration of thermal power plants, as well as in supporting the operations of mines and machine-building plants since the start of the full-scale invasion (2022–April 2026), have already exceeded UAH 49 billion.
The DTEK Group is the largest private investor in Ukraine’s energy sector, employing 55,000 people and having invested over EUR 12 billion since 2005. It is wholly owned by SCM Holdings. The ultimate beneficiary and sole shareholder is Rinat Akhmetov.
