Ukraine will install up to 1 GW of gas-fired distributed generation urgently, and DTEK Energy will direct all funds to restore TPPs.

It is realistic to install up to 1 GW of gas-fired power generation in Ukraine, according to Deputy Minister of Energy Mykola Kolisnyk.

“Several tens of megawatts have already been installed, and several hundred megawatts are at the stage of connection,” he said.

Meanwhile, the DTEK Energy company invests all available funds to restore thermal power plants damaged due to Russian shelling, said DTEK Executive Director Dmytro Sakharuk.

“We lost 90% of DTEK Energy’s capacity. We are investing ₴4B to recover,” he said during the telecast.

At the same time, during the War & Energy live panel discussion organized by UBN Network, Sakharuk drew attention to the lack of anti-aircraft missiles, which makes it impossible to protect power system facilities that Ukraine has already repaired.

Denmark will transfer another €4.7M to the Energy Support Fund of Ukraine for rapid recovery in Mykolaiv and Kharkiv regions. The total amount of donor contributions to the Fund exceeded €551M.
