DTEK'S LARGEST WIND PROJECT GAINS MOMENTUM IN UKRAINE

DTEK Renewables is accelerating its plans for the Poltavska Wind Power Plant. With a projected capacity of 650 MW, this venture is poised to reshape the energy map of the region. At present, final touches are being applied to the detailed territory plan (DTP), meticulously outlining the location, construction, operation, and maintenance procedures for the WPP. Collaborative efforts between DTEK Renewables and local stakeholders are paving the way for sustainable development within the territorial community.

The Poltavska Wind Power Plant will be ready-to-built in 1Q 2025.

MODUS X BECAME AN OFFICIAL PARTNER OF CYBERSECURITY COMPANY CHECK POINT

Modus X, previously the IT division of DTEK, has established a strategic partnership with Check Point, a leader in cybersecurity solutions for businesses, to enhance its cybersecurity capabilities.

"This partnership is strategically important for MODUS X, as it allows the company to expand its portfolio of IT security services and become one of the leading providers of these services in Ukraine," said Dmytro Osyka, CEO of MODUS X.

Following the escalation of cyber-attacks after russia's invasion of Ukraine, Ukrainian companies have become increasingly concerned about cybersecurity. In response to these challenges, businesses have been compelled to seek out new measures to protect their information systems.

DTEK TALKS TO ITALY'S CORRIERE DELLA SERA ON ITS RENEWABLE GROWTH PLANS FOR EUROPE
In a recent interview with Corriere della Sera, a leading Italian newspaper, Maxim Timchenko, DTEK CEO, shed light on the company's ambitious investment plans in Italy, marking a significant stride towards expanding its renewable energy footprint in Europe. In Italy, DTEK aims to make significant strides in renewable energy, with plans to develop up to two gigawatts of capacity.

"We have beautiful projects in Sardinia and some on the Italian mainland. We consider Italy the priority country for our solar and battery storage investments. Italy has very ambitious plans for renewable growth and changing the energy mix," Mr. Timchenko outlined.

DTEK'S TIMCHENKO ADVOCATES COLLABORATION WITH JAPANESE COMPANIES IN RENEWABLE ENERGY PURSUITS

DTEK is actively seeking partnerships in renewables, as highlighted by CEO Maxim Timchenko in an interview with Japan’s leading financial newspaper Nikkei. Mr.Timchenko expressed optimism about engaging with Japanese companies, banks and institutions in an upcoming visit to Tokyo and he emphasised the potential for concrete collaborations.

In light of war, Mr Timchenko emphasized the importance of decentralized power generation, such as solar and wind farms, which offer greater resilience compared with traditional fossil fuel power stations.

"During wartime, it is much more secure to build more decentralized power generation like solar and windfarms than big fossil fuel power stations," Timchenko said, noting that he latter are more vulnerable to military strikes.


DTEK POWER STATIONS HIT IN FRESH STRIKES BY RUSSIAN INVADERS
russia carried out another attack against Ukraine's civilian energy facilities on February 13, hit by drones and severely damaging a DTEK thermal power plant in the Dnipropetrovsk region. Electricity production was halted at the plant. russia has repeated targeted Ukraine's energy system since its full-scale invasion in Feburary 2022, in an attempt to cripple Ukraine's economy and break people's spirit. However, DTEK engineers and workers from across the energy system have largely been successful in maintaining power across the country.

DTEK power plants were attacked 40 times this winter by russian forces.
