Kyiv May Face Water Outages for Up to 1.5 Days Due to Destruction of Power Plants

On November 4, 2026, it was reported that the generation of TPP-4, TPP-5, and TPP-6 in Kyiv has been completely destroyed due to Russian strikes. According to Aleksandr Kharchenko, the director of the Energy Research Center, most of the equipment is beyond repair, leading to severe consequences for the water supply in the capital.

Impact on Water Supply

Kharchenko noted that certain areas of Kyiv may remain without water for up to 1.5 days. While a citywide water outage is not expected, the situation raises concerns among the residents of the capital.

Restoration of Capacities

The restoration of TPP-4, TPP-5, and TPP-6 capacities is highly unlikely. Experts estimate that only 10-15% of the previous capacity may be returned to service. This indicates that Kyiv will need alternative sources of energy and water supply to ensure comfortable living conditions for its population.
