This weekend President Zelensky informed all of us of important news that practically all thermal power plants in Ukraine have been damaged and the winter will be very difficult.
But there is one nuance: unfortunately, practically all large thermal power plants (there are only about 10 of them) were damaged already during the winter of 2022-2023. Then practically all thermal power plants were damaged again in 2024. And in 2025. The last round of damage to all large thermal power plants was last winter, 2025-2026.
So there is nothing new here. And the main question we should ask the authorities is — how much new decentralized generation has been built over these years to compensate for the loss of these gigantic facilities that the enemy has destroyed and damaged repeatedly?…
The numbers are very sad.
In last year’s tender for building new generation, in which Halushchenko tried to manually influence the results, only 78 MW will be built, and not all of the plants have started up yet. As of July 2026, about 700 MW of new gas generation is operating in the power system.
This is against a deficit last winter of up to 7000 MW.
