"For months, devastating russian missile and drone attacks have crushed our energy system and put millions more Ukrainians in the line of fire. Yesterday, the United States answered our call for help. The $61 billion package passed in the US House holds the hope that our shattered power stations will again bring light to Ukraine and our towns and cities will be safe from russia's terrorist attacks.
With America behind us, Ukraine and the democratic world will prevail." said Maxim Timchenko on his LinkedIn account.
russia launched missile and drone attacks against Ukraine’s energy assets including two DTEK power plants early on Thursday, April 11th causing significant damage and destruction. DTEK teams are working tirelessly to repair and restore power as quickly as possible. But attacks continue regularly and the air defence systems are crucial to prevent the repeated destruction of equipment and TPPs units that have just been repaired.
DTEK has launched a new Advisory Council made up of globally-recognised public and private sector leaders to provide strategic counsel to the CEO and senior management. A key focus of the Council will be ensuring DTEK adheres to the highest governance standards and ever-stronger safeguards against corruption – building on the company’s membership of the World Economic Forum’s Partnership Against Corruption Initiative (PACI) last year.
