Despite the war and relocation, DTEK Energy’s mechanical engineering workers managed to supply Ukrainian mines with the necessary equipment and spare parts.
This has been reported by Ildar Saleev, CEO of DTEK Energy.
“As the nation struggles through the enemy’s unprecedented attacks, Ukrainian energy needs a reliable support basis. For our energy workers, such bases are the Armed Forces of Ukraine on one side and the coal miners on the other. In their turn, the coal miners are reliably supported by the mechanical engineering workers. Despite the war and relocation to alternative sites, our mechanical engineering workers continue manufacturing the necessary equipment, spare parts and details that are necessary for the coal miners to do their job,” said Mr. Saleev.
According to him, DTEK Energy’s mechanical engineering workers managed to produce some 147 units of coal mining equipment, 9 coal cutting machines and 456 thousand spare parts and components to meet the needs of Ukrainian coal miners following the deliverables of the previous year.
The upcoming plans of DTEK Energy’s mechanical engineering workers include manufacturing of the new generation coal mining equipment that would allow maintaining the required coal production rates across Ukrainian mines.
