Enemy shelled the territory of a TPP in Donetsk region, gas companies in Kharkiv region restored gas supply to consumers who had been without it for five months

CONSEQUENCES OF THE SHELLING

The enemy continues to shell energy facilities. The area near a thermal power plant in Donetsk region was shelled. There were no casualties, and power engineers are inspecting possible damage.

In Kharkiv region, a medium-pressure gas pipeline was damaged by shelling. More than 300 consumers were left without gas. Most of them have already been reconnected.

At the same time, gas supply has been restored to a settlement that had been without gas since July due to the hostilities.

POWER GENERATION

Power generating facilities are operating normally. The coal and fuel oil stocks are sufficient for the uninterrupted operation of the power plants. The amount of electricity generated is sufficient to fully meet the needs of consumers and industry.

Four TPP units were shut down for short-term repairs. One of them has already been put back into operation. Repairs are ongoing at the others.

SITUATION IN THE FRONTLINE AREAS

More than 40 settlements in Donetsk region lost power due to the hostilities. Repairs are underway.

In Chernihiv region, enemy shelling damaged an overhead line. Almost 500 consumers were left without electricity.

In Kharkiv region, repairs are underway at energy facilities damaged by shelling. Deminers and special equipment are involved.

In Kherson, 76 customers were reconnected overnight.

In total, over 23,600 customers have had their electricity restored over the last day.

Some customers in Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Kherson regions are still without power supply.

SITUATION IN THE REGIONS

In Dnipropetrovsk and Kyiv regions, 11 settlements are without power due to bad weather. In Sumy region, 60 settlements are without power due to technological disruptions.

SITUATION AT THE ZNPP

A slight decrease in the water level in the plant’s cooling pond has been recorded – it is now at 15.67 meters. This is sufficient to meet the plant’s needs.

EXPORT/IMPORT

Over the past day, exports totaled 321 MWh, while imports amounted to 4,455 MWh.
