In January-March, DTEK Energy miners put six new longwalls into operation. This will help maintain coal production at a rate required for Ukrainian TPPs to operate steadily.
As part of the effort, the company’s mining enterprises commissioned two longwalls in January, three in February, and one in March.
“Ukrainian miners are very busy not only in the cold months but the whole year without a break. After all, coal mining is not a quick process. Longwalls need to be put into operation in the spring so that coal can be delivered to TPPs in October or November. This is why the miners are now working 24/7 to provide TPP generation with coal during the equally severe heating season to come,” says DTEK Energy CEO Ildar Saleev.
Last year, the company’s coal-mining enterprises put 28 new longwalls into operation.
To get through the heating season more securely, DTEK Energy provided its own TPPs with fuel and found a way to help government-owned ones. More than 120,000 tons of coal were shipped late last year to cover their needs.
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.
