Unfortunately, during massive Russian missile and drone attacks, Ukrainian energy workers are periodically forced to reduce the output of Ukraine’s nuclear power plants.
There are several reasons for these measures:
Deputy Minister of Energy of Ukraine Mykola Kolisnyk took part in the conference “Ukraine-U.S. Minerals Deal: Managing the Risks of Implementation and Potential Disputes”, held within the framework of New York Arbitration Week.
Deputy Minister of Energy of Ukraine Roman Andarak held a meeting with a delegation of the Danish Energy Agency.
Energy workers continue eliminating the consequences of recent Russian strikes on energy facilities in several regions. This was reported by Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Energy Mykola Kolisnyk during a broadcast of the United News national telethon.
The Government of Ukraine has appointed First Deputy Minister of Energy Artem Nekrasov to temporarily perform the duties of the Minister of Energy. The corresponding decision was approved at today’s Cabinet meeting.
As a result, emergency power outages have been introduced in several regions of Ukraine.
As soon as the security situation allows, rescue services and energy workers will begin eliminating the consequences of the attack to restore electricity supply in the affected regions as quickly as possible. Emergency outages will be lifted once the situation in the power system stabilizes.
We urge everyone to remain calm and follow official updates.
Lithuanian electricity transmission system operator Litgrid has provided Ukraine with a new batch of equipment to support the restoration of the national energy system. The assistance was collected from various regions across Lithuania and successfully delivered to Ukraine.
The shipment includes critical components needed for the repair of substations and power transmission lines, which will enhance the stability and resilience of the energy system. The equipment will be used for urgent restoration works on damaged networks.
The Ministry of Energy of Ukraine expresses its deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Vadym Zhykh, an electrician born in 1980, who worked at the Inhulskа Mine of the Eastern Mining and Processing Plant (SkhidGZK) and tragically died as a result of an accident.
The incident occurred at the mine on 11 November, after which contact was lost with two employees. As a result of emergency search operations, on 17 November the body of one of them was found. The deceased miner’s body has been brought to the surface. Emergency search efforts are ongoing.
The Naftogaz Group and the Greek state-owned company DEPA Commercial have signed a Letter of Intent on the supply of natural gas to Ukraine for the winter period of 2025–2026.
This step reflects the Ukrainian Government’s systematic efforts to secure sufficient natural gas volumes in underground storage and to strengthen the country’s energy resilience ahead of the heating season.
In the Chernihiv region, following massive Russian shelling, the number of consumers left without electricity has been reduced by half in a short period of time. This was reported by Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Energy Mykola Kolisnyk during a broadcast of the national telethon United News.
