DTEK Group was honoured at the ‘Oscars of Energy’ in New York on Thursday night for its instrumental work keeping the lights on across Ukraine during war.
 
DTEK won the Corporate Impact Award at the 25th S&P Platts Global Energy Awards for “having gone truly above and beyond in its corporate impact,” the organisation said.
 
Executive Director Dmytro Sakharuk stepped up to loud applause and told an audience of over 200 industry leaders that the award was “for every single person at DTEK who runs towards danger and keeps the lights on to defend democracy.” And he particularly thanked the Americans for their ongoing support.
“You keep us in this fight,” he said.

One judge said “DTEK is persevering amidst upheaval and crisis … they are a pillar for the people of Ukraine.”

DTEK Group is the largest private investor in Ukraine’s energy sector, with 55,000 employees and over €12 billion of capital invested since 2005.

Our businesses generate electricity at wind, solar and thermal power plants; distribute and supply power to end consumers; extract natural gas and coal; trade energy resources on Ukrainian and foreign markets; and provide domestic and commercial energy services.

Over the last 20 years, DTEK has grown into a national energy leader and is today transforming into a pan-European clean energy business.

Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, DTEK Group has restored power to millions of consumers across regions affected by hostilities.

DTEK Group is 100% owned by SCM Holdings. The ultimate beneficiary and sole shareholder is Rinat Akhmetov, a businessman and philanthropist.
