On October 12, 2026, it was reported that power generation in Kyiv has been completely destroyed due to ballistic strikes. According to Olexandr Kharchenko, the director of the Energy Research Center, the company 'Ukrenergo' has not yet received the equipment needed for repairs of energy facilities, which was ordered back in March.
Consequences of Ballistic Strikes
The ballistic strikes that the capital has suffered have led to catastrophic consequences for the energy infrastructure. Olexandr Kharchenko noted that as a result of these attacks, Kyiv has completely lost power generation. This creates serious problems for the residents of the city, who are left without electricity supply.
Repair Issues for Energy Facilities
An important issue complicating the situation is the lack of necessary equipment for repairs. 'Ukrenergo' has not received the ordered materials, delaying the restoration of energy facilities. Among the main problems faced by the company are:
- Equipment ordered in March has not yet been delivered.
- Lack of spare parts for restoring the operation of the energy infrastructure.
- Uncertainty regarding the delivery timelines for new equipment.
This situation raises concerns among the population and experts, as restoring the energy system is critically important for ensuring stability in the capital.
