Yesterday, DTEK specialists have also restored power to the critical and socially important infrastructure in the city of Bucha – water utility and fire department. 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. Company’s specialists inspect lines on a daily basis and gradually repair electrical infrastructure in towns and villages.
Based on the preliminary estimate, 1600 km of region’s grids were damaged. However, this number may be adjusted after completion of grids inspection. DTEK emergency crews continue restoring power to settlements in the Kyiv region that were liberated from russian invaders by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Energy workers of all DTEK Grids Distribution System Operators rallied to restore everything that was destroyed by the invaders. DTEK energy workers from Odessa and Dnipropetrovsk regions, as well as the city of Kyiv are helping to restore damaged grids in the Kyiv region.
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 13, DTEK energy workers plan to perform power restoration activities in 41 more settlements of Brovary, Bucha and Vyshhorod districts.
