DTEK invests €143 million to prepare for the 2025/2026 winter season
  • DTEK Energy invested €143 million in the first half of 2025 to prepare for winter 25/26
  • €83 million spent on repairs and upgrades of thermal power plants during wartime
  • €60 million invested in coal mining with new mining faces launched to supply fuel

From January to June 2025, DTEK Energy allocated €143 million (UAH 7 billion) to prepare for the 2025/2026 winter season. The investments targeted repairs and maintenance of thermal power plants and strengthening coal mining operations.

Facing the impacts of war and attacks on energy infrastructure, DTEK Energy carried out extensive repairs at its thermal power stations. Around €83 million (UAH 4 billion) was spent on these repairs in the first six months of the year, exceeding the total amount spent in 2024. This work ensures the power plants are ready to meet demand in winter and helps stabilise the energy system.

At the same time, the company invested €60 million (UAH 2.9 billion) in its coal mining operations. This funding enabled the opening of seven new coal faces, which DTEK will use in its thermal power plants.

DTEK’s mining machinery business produced and repaired 1,707 pieces of equipment in the first half, including four new road headers and over 1.2 million spare parts and components.

“Our workers, maintenance teams, miners, and machine builders continue to operate to ensure Ukrainians have electricity, especially during peak consumption. We are laying the foundation for reliable thermal power generation this winter. Electricity is not just light; it is the basis of the country’s resilience. We restore equipment and confidence in the energy system. We continue repairs, invest in coal mining, and supply mines with necessary machinery. We do all we can so that Ukrainians have light and warmth even in difficult times,” said Oleksandr Fomenko, CEO of DTEK Energy.
