DTEK serves the Ukraine’s interests, takes care of its customers and does everything to ensure that their homes always have lights on and comfort. Over the weekend, we returned power to more than 6,000 of our customers. More than 90 repair teams and 70 pieces of equipment were involved in the emergency recovery work,” says Oleksii Degtyarev, CEO at DTEK Donetsk Grids.

In total, DTEK Donetsk Grids returned power to 179 settlements over the last week. And this counts more than 120,000 customers. The company restored the operation of 74 power lines, 973 transformer substations, de-energized due to severe weather. The largest number of blackouts was recorded in Pokrovsky, Bakhmutsky, Volnovakhsky, and Mariupol Districts. It was quite a challenge to complete the recovery because of thunderstorms, strong winds and rainfalls, which lasted the whole week with short breaks in some areas.

Now the energy workers from DTEK Donetsk Grids are still on full alert to prevent weather-related outages and eliminate possible accidents.

Here DTEK Donetsk Grids gives some of the electrical safety rules:

  • In case of strong wind, you should not be near power lines;
  • Do not approach the broken wire closer than 8-12 meters and in no case touch it;
  • If you see wires that have fallen to the ground, broken or sagging wires, open doors and hatches of electrical installations, as well as damaged poles, please notify our call center at (0629) 450 473, (093/096/099) 4500473, or sent a message through our Facebook;

Information about outages can be checked using the DTEK Donetsk Grids chatbot on Viber or Telegram, as well as on the company's website in the section "Scheduled and Emergency Outages". If your address is there, meaning that the energy workers know about the blackout.
