The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation hit the energy objects of Ukraine 60 times. Where were blackouts and how serious the losses

Russian troops more often began to attack infrastructure objects with rockets and drones-Kamikadze. The consequences of past massive blows are still eliminated, some of the capacities are just going to start. The focus understood whether they defended the Ukrainian power system on the eve of winter. In recent weeks, the Russian military has hit the energy infrastructure from various weapons 60 times.

Each new attack requires new equipment, said the Minister of Energy of Ukraine Herman Galushchenko at a meeting with US Deputy Secretary of State of Energy Resources Jeffrey Piett. The head of the Ministry of Energy is convinced that the Russians will continue the attacks and asks the staff to help. Ukraine should enter the heating season 2024-2025 with gas turbines and generators with a capacity of more than 300 MW, the minister stressed.

On November 7, a spokeswoman for the south of the south, Natalia Humeniuk, said that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation did not yet fire the energy infrastructure of Ukraine, because the cold has not yet begun. According to her, the invaders wait for the right moment. "This year, autumn is warmer than the previous one, in November there is a positive temperature. It is early to talk about the heating period. With the onset of cold, missile attacks are quite possible," the military said.

The number of blows on energy objects made by Herman, makes him think about the degree of destruction and how successfully he proved to show heavily protected substation protection. The attacks on infrastructure objects by Iranian UAVS Shahd were really more frequent, but it is incorrect to talk about blackouts, explains the first deputy head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Energy and Housing Oleksiy Kucherenko. "Large -scale light shutdown depends on critical purposes.

Strails on transformers lead to thousands of people sitting without light for several days. Local blackstocks are possible. Judging by statistics, they were in six areas," the focus politician said. The Russians are hit by energy objects in frontline areas, but it affects the general state of Ukraine's grid, the expert of the Institute of Energy Strategies Yuriy Korolchuk says focus. "In Western Ukraine, the station may be shot, calculating the required number of Shahd and missiles drones.

I can say that 60 objects have not managed to fire. , - said the focus a specialist. Most likely, the Ministry of Energy spoke about combined attacks by Shaahd and rockets. That is why 60 strokes were counted, the focus of the housing and communal services expert, tariffs and issues of communal services comments Oleg Popenko. "I doubt that the Russians have struck so many blows in recent weeks. The figure is really large if massive shelling is meant," he notes.

The issues of protection of Ukrenergo objects began to be worked only at the end of the summer, and therefore was spent time. After all, Popenko estimates, for such work the start was to be in the spring. "In the list of objects, large and small transformer substations and for some have not even identified the major repairs plans," the expert adds. The media with reference to government sources write that repair plans are still being implemented.

Objects with the greatest damage want to put into operation in November. "It is impossible to fully protect energy objects. Inventories have been depleted last year and will not quickly restore a huge number of transformers," - say in the Cabinet of Ministers. Alexei Kucherenko in this connection says that in the winter it is not necessary to wait for one hundred percent protection against arrivals. "We are talking about experimental engineering structures.

They do not guarantee the absence of damage. With confidence I tell you that the problems with the supply of electricity in the frost will be. We will see the scale later," he notes. We will remind, the Ukrainian government wants to provide Ukrainians with firewood in the heating season. The largest subsidy for the purchase of firewood will be 16. 2 thousand hryvnias per year per family.
