A loss of $ 9 billion: how many energy objects of Ukraine damaged in 2022 the Russian Federation

According to the CEO of Yasno Sergei Kovalenko, some objects have been completely destroyed by the Russians, and they will have to be rebuilt. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation during last year's missile and drone shelling was able to damage 270 energy facilities in Ukraine, or almost 50% of the country's power system. This was told in an interview with LIGA. NET CEO of Yasno, which is part of the DTEK group, Sergey Kovalenko.

According to him, losses from such attacks amounted to $ 9 billion. So, on October 10, when the first massive firing of the power system, the Russian army damaged 11 energy facilities in 8 regions of Ukraine. "I can confidently say that there are objects that have fallen under zero, and they can no longer be restored - only to construct. It takes years, plus large investments," - said Sergey Kovalenko.

He also noted that energy has been able to restore some of the damaged objects and now the power system can perform generation and transmission tasks. Yes, 18 power units were repaired, for example, two more power units were reconnected, making the power of the power system increased by another 500 MW. Therefore, in August, when the level of electricity consumption in Ukraine climbed to winter indicators, consumers did not feel any problems. "The system has withstood electricity.

According to a member of the Parliamentary Committee on Energy and Housing and Communal Services Sergiy Nagornyak, the planned power offices in Ukraine will probably begin in November. Even if the Russians do not restore firing of energy objects. "It is likely that we will have a shortage of electricity since mid -November. And even imports we will not block it. I can predict that there will be planned shutdowns. This is even in the absence of shelling. If there are shelling, especially.

We expect firing at balancing capacities, "he said. According to Nagornyak, local blackberries are possible if the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will fireting the substations of "Ukrenergo". Then energy will need more time to repair damaged objects. We will remind, the Secretary of the NSDC Alexei Danilov told how Ukraine will defend its energy infrastructure during probable massive shelling in the fall and winter.
