According to the director of CHPP-5, Alexander Minkovich, the restoration of the central station involves the manufacture of exclusive equipment for power units, in particular, turbines and generators:
In the case of full financing of the work, benefits for the production and supply of equipment, the reconstruction process will last more than one year.
In Kharkov, as of 15:00 on March 25, 215.8 thousand consumers did not have electricity, the press service of the Ministry of Energy reported. According to the city council, almost 80% of consumers have now been able to heal.
The city council says the planned outage schedules will remain unchanged for now. If there is no light according to schedule, then this is not a planned outage, but an emergency shutdown.
Earlier, Racurs reported that DTEK lost almost half of its generating capacity as a result of the latest massive attacks on the Ukrainian energy system.
The destruction of energy facilities is so large-scale that it is estimated at billions of hryvnias and Ukrainian energy companies will not be able to recover on their own, said DTEK Executive Director Dmitry Sakharuk.
The mayor of Kharkov, Igor Terekhov, said that the heating season in Kharkov will end early amid massive Russian missile attacks. These measures involve reducing the load on the city’s significantly damaged energy infrastructure.
Heat supply will be turned off starting tomorrow. The air temperature outside is favorable,” Terekhov said.
