DTEK Donetsk Grids returned power to the residents of the front-line village of Vodyanoe

The power supply to the village of Vodyanoe was disrupted on February 15 after shelling. Since the village is located in a "gray" zone, there was a need for additional coordination with the Joint Center for Control and Coordination on Ceasefire Issues to do the restoration work.

“As soon as the company received all the necessary approvals, the repair teams of DTEK Donetsk Grids began work to restore the power supply. Our energy workers recovered line breaks, recovered the transformer substation, returned power to the houses of nine residents of Vodyanoye, - says Oleksii Degtiarev, DTEK Donetsk Grids CEO. - We understand how important it is for residents of frontline settlements to have power supply. We eliminate the consequences of accidents 24x7 so that there is electricity and comfort in the house of each of our customer."

DTEK strives to become the gold standard of customer-oriented business and implements high-level service standards. We share the values of society and understand that the availability of a constant and uninterrupted power supply is a key to the safety and comfort of the residents in the region.

In 2020, DTEK Donetsk Grids returned power to residents of 42 front-line settlements, restored 2 high-voltage lines, 14 medium-low voltage lines and 126 transformer substations damaged because of shelling. In total, since the beginning of armed conflict in Donbass, the company has restored power supply at substations and power lines more than 16,000 times.
