"If we talk about why the light is not switched off now, it is a combination of factors. We have warming, renewable energy sources began to work. The days have become longer, the sun has become more and solar stations they generate a lot of energy," Sakharuk explained. DTEK Executive Director stated that all Ukrainian hydroelectric power plants and NPPs operate at maximum capacity.
In addition, energy was able to restore part of the blocks of thermal power plants that were damaged by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. "That is, in fact, we now have the maximum generation that Ukraine can afford at the expense of the capacities we have," the DTEK representative stated. According to Saharuk, in the future it will be necessary to prepare stations for the winter period of 2024. To do this, you will have to temporarily stop for repair work both atomic blocks and TPPs.
The introduction of fan shutdowns will also be affected by the end of spring flood and reducing the amount of sunlight. All this can lead to the restrictions imposed in Ukraine in October last year. Dmitry Sakharuk also noted that in Ukraine almost half of all objects used to transmit electricity and as much generating capacity were damaged. Of the half of the damaged generation objects, 75 percent is at TPP.
