DTEK Group began supplying free electricity to medical institutions, military and law enforcement agencies, as well as bread producers in Kyiv, as well as in the Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions.

“Ukraine is going through the most difficult period of its history and business will make every effort to help the state and its population. In addition to the humanitarian aid program and support for the army, from March we will provide all medical institutions, law enforcement agencies and bread producers in three regions with free electricity,” said Maxim Timchenko, CEO of DTEK.

During the period of hostilities, the company will not issue invoices to all medical institutions – hospitals, infirmaries and rehabilitation centers in these regions.

In addition, free electricity will be provided to institutions of law enforcement agencies – the Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other departments that ensure security and public order.

The company will also provide electricity to bread producers located in these regions.

Earlier, DTEK Group announced a program of humanitarian assistance to the population affected by hostilities, as well as measures to support the armed forces and territorial defense forces.

 

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.
