The majority – again in the Donetsk region. Here, energy workers managed to restore electricity to almost 400,000 homes of the region’s residents over the course of the week. The region remains the nexus of extremely heavy fighting. Despite constant danger, energy workers continue to work and restore power supply.

From August 17 to 23, specialists in the Odesa region, in their turn, managed to restore power supply to 311,300 homes, de-energized by constant enemy attacks on the region.

During the same period, energy workers in the capital managed to restore electricity to more than 90,000 homes after yet another enemy attacks.

Last week, energy workers in the Dnipropetrovsk region were able to conduct a number of grid repairs and restore power to 87,700 homes. The enemy is constantly attacking Dnipropetrovsk region, thus regularly damaging grids and leaving residents of the region without electricity.

Over the course of the week, energy workers in the Kyiv region managed to restore power supply to almost 27,000 families of local residents.

“The enemy continues to attack our country. We continue to work, despite danger and attacks, for as long as 1,644 days now. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, we have already restored electricity to more than 52.5 mln* families in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa and Donetsk regions, and in the city of Kyiv. We have restored electricity in some settlements close to the combat zone on dozens of occasions,” – noted Alina Bondarenko, CEO at DTEK Grids.

Energy workers of DTEK Grids DSO are doing everything possible to eliminate damage as soon as possible. They commence work immediately after obtaining permission and access to the site of damage from AFU and SES.
