As a result of the November 23 attack, Ukraine lost a significant part of electricity generation at various types of power plants: nuclear, thermal, and hydroelectric, he noted.
Kudrytskyi also emphasized that energy workers are ready to restore the power system in case of repeated Russian attacks but consumers should save electricity. According to him, Ukraine receives help from international partners in the form of equipment and materials, as well as in the form of financial support for carrying out repair works.
In addition, Kudrytskyi said that there is an opportunity to import electricity from Europe in the amount of up to 500 MW. “The only thing is that a special mechanism is needed to ensure these imports because the electricity price in Europe is higher,” he added.
As reported, the Russian missile attack on November 23 led to the temporary blackout of all nuclear power plants, most thermal power and hydropower plants. Electric power transmission facilities were also affected. Due to a decrease in the frequency of the energy system of Ukraine, emergency protection was activated at the Rivne, South Ukraine, and Khmelnytsky NPPs, as a result of which all power units automatically shut down.
