Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure
Since 24 February 2022, Russia launched nearly 180 attacks on Ukrainian thermal power plants, according to DTEK, Ukraine’s largest private energy company. The company estimated the cost of the repairs for only two power plants damaged in March 2024 to be $230 million, primarily for purchasing transformers. The most recent Russian air assault on the power infrastructure occurred on 27 April 2024, when the coordinated missile attack damaged energy facilities in multiple regions despite Ukraine's air defenses intercepting 21 out of the 34 launched missiles. Earlier this month, Russians targeted energy facilities in Kharkiv, eastern Ukraine, leaving over 200,000 customers without electricity. They also destroyed the Trypilska Thermal Power Plant in Kyiv Oblast, wiping out 100% of its power generation capacity.
