With the current state of the grid, it will take us 5-7 years after the war to bring everything to such an order that only some powerful natural events can lead to power outages.
He added that Ukraine’s energy system is in a difficult state, not to mention the situation in the frontline regions.
Interruptions in supply are quite likely now. The distribution energy grid itself is quite fragile. A lot is not in very good condition, a lot has been restored “on the fly,” and this is without delving into the analysis of frontline regions, where the situation is generally very sad, unfortunately.
AdditionElectricity consumption in Ukraine is decreasing due to moderate temperatures and the efficiency of solar power plants. 35 settlements in four regions are without power due to bad weather, and restoration work is ongoing.
