Electricity is back in 28 settlements in the Kyiv region, left without electricity due to hostilities: DTEK energy workers restored power
On April 8, DTEK electricians managed to restore power to 28 settlements in the Kyiv region. Namely, in the Bucha district electricity was completely restored in Kolonschyna and partially restored in Makariv, Zurovka, Iasnohorodka, Makovische, Vyshehrad, Petrushky, Lychanka, Myla, Shpytky and Muzychi. While in the Brovary district electricity was partially restored in Rudnia, Bohdanivka, Kulazhyntsi, Svitylnia, Velyka Dymerka, Skybyn, Ploske, Korzhi, Lukianivka and Peremoha. Energy workers were allowed to restore damaged grids after the Armed Forces of Ukraine forced back the attack of russian invaders and cleared these territories of mines. Overall, in the course of the past 24 hours, service was restored to 3,192 families in the Kyiv region.
Besides, energy workers restored power to the building of the city council in Irpin, liberated from russian invaders by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
DTEK emergency crews continue restoring power to settlements in Kyiv region that were liberated from russian invaders by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In particular, they already started restoring power to Bohdanivka in Brovary district, where electricity was unavailable for a month. Energy workers of all DTEK Grids Distribution System Operators rallied to restore everything that was destroyed by the invaders. DTEK energy workers from Odessa region and the city of Kyiv are helping to restore damaged grids in the Kyiv region.
Electricians continue inspecting energy equipment and performing restoration activities. Emergency and restoration crews start their work immediately after mine clearance of these territories. First, company’s specialists restore 110-35 kV high-voltage grids that supply power to the settlements. Then, they start restoring 10-0.4 kV distribution grids that supply power directly to residential buildings.
On April 9, DTEK energy workers plan to perform power restoration activities in 23 more settlements of Brovary, Bucha and Vyshhorod districts. Flooded areas with company’s grids complicate the repair process. Enemy has destroyed a pump station that pumps water from river Irpin into Dnipro, thus flooding significant area of the region. For this reason, restoration of power to Kozarovychi of Vyshhorod district will take several more days.
The company cooperates with the Territorial Defense Forces and Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to access damaged sites. DTEK electricians jointly with doctors, volunteers and suppliers of the essential food and medications do everything in their power to support Ukraine and Ukrainians in these difficult circumstances.
Residents of 389 settlements in Kyiv region remain without electricity.
Emergency crews of energy workers are working non-stop for 45 days in a row in order to promptly restore power supply to settlements in Kyiv region, affected by hostilities.
