Oleksandr Lytvynenko states: during the war, the Ukrainian energy sector has demonstrated its ability to implement innovative solutions.
At the same time, the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council adds, despite everything, the enemy has not managed to destroy the Ukrainian economy.
Recall that a week ago, during a government meeting, Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal also noted that, despite the attempts of the Russians to hit the Ukrainian energy facilities, the situation in the energy system remains stable and balanced.
The government and energy specialists are working around the clock to restore, repair and develop decentralized generation.
In addition, on October 8, the government managed to redistribute funds within the framework of a loan from the European Investment Bank for the modernization of Ukrainian substations, thanks to which it will be possible to direct an additional €86 million to the construction of protection systems around energy facilities.
This will help reduce the risks of Russian terrorist attacks, the Prime Minister emphasized.
The full-scale war in Ukraine has been going on for 965 days.
The situation in the cities can be monitored on the interactive map of military operations in Ukraine and on the air raid map in Ukraine.
