In a month, it will be 1000 days since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. 1000 days of absolute brutality on the part of the Kremlin. From the very beginning, they targeted Ukraine’s energy infrastructure to try to plunge the country into darkness. Half of the country’s entire energy infrastructure was destroyed
The President of the European Commission noted that 80% of thermal power plants and a third of hydroelectric power plants in Ukraine were destroyed due to Russian attacks. The EU will focus its efforts on repairing energy facilities to restore 2.5 gigawatts of power by winter. This is about 15% of Ukraine’s needs.
So far, we have managed to send more than 10,000 generators and transformers, and more help is coming. As we speak, there is an entire thermal power plant that is being dismantled in Lithuania and shipped to Ukraine with our support, and then rebuilt in Ukraine. This shows the continued desire of the European Union and its member states to support Ukraine
She also said that EU countries export 2 gigawatts of electricity to Ukraine, which also covers about 12% of the country’s electricity needs for the winter.
In addition, the European Union is sending solar panels to 21 hospitals in the country to ensure uninterrupted power supply. Eight of them should be fully equipped by this winter.
