DTEK Dnipro Grids received an aerial platform from USAID

Thanks to the Energy Security Project (ESP), financed by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), DTEK Dnipro Grids received a new 24-meter aerial platform as part of the international technical aid. New machinery will help energy workers eliminate emergencies faster and conduct scheduled repairs in the grid.

Since the first days of the war, Dnipropetrovsk region has been suffering from enemy attacks that regularly destroy the electrical infrastructure of towns and villages. Thanks to the new 24-meter Iveco Daily chassis-mounted aerial platform of the leading Italian company SOCAGE DA324, energy workers will faster eliminate malfunctions in the operation of the grid, and the customers will receive services faster.

“DTEK Dnipro Grids is grateful to USAID for the provided aid related to the car fleet replenishment, which is especially important now. The aerial platform will operate in the western subdivision and will help eliminate emergencies on the high-voltage grids. It will also allow to prompt restore electricity to residents of communities on the southern border of the region – exactly where hostilities regularly damage the grid. For us, the uninterrupted power supply is a basis of a normal life of Ukrainians,” — noted DTEK Dnipro Grids.

The working rise height of the new aerial platform is 24 meters; the horizontal reach of the boom is 11 meters. The machinery is also equipped with a cradle with a 250 kg load capacity and a 90-degree turn left and right that ensures additional convenience during the performance of non-standard tasks.

Let us remind you that during the past autumn-winter period, DTEK Dnipro Grids specialists have eliminated more than 5,500 emergencies including 1,000 – caused by hostilities and restored electricity to 717,000 customers.
