The Financial Times spoke with Ukrainian energy workers who are continuously fighting on the energy front and bringing back the light and heat to Ukrainians.
- “I’ve got all my team ready within one phone call, they are Marvel superheroes,” said the maintenance engineer at DTEK. “It’s our job to bring light to people, doing the impossible.”
- “All the equipment is located in the open air, so it’s quite easy to hit,” said Maxim Timchenko, DTEK’s chief executive.
If there is a direct hit, there is no chance the equipment can be saved.
