Russia's strongest attack so far on Ukraine's thermal power plants. “Energy production is zero” [WIDEO]
“Never-before-seen numbers of missiles and countless drones targeting several times a minute the same thermal power plants we rebuilt after the devastating attack in 2024.” – the company emphasized in a statement.
It was noted that not even a month has passed since the previous attack, and tonight Russia simultaneously attacked the entire Centrenergo production. “We stopped […]. Currently, energy production is zero. Zero! We lost what we were rebuilding around the clock. Completely!” the company said. In the spring of 2024, Centrenergo was completely cut off after Russian attacks.
Centrenergo stressed that it will renovate, repair and implement next-generation technology. The energy company operates two thermal power plants: Trypilskaya in the Kiev Oblast, which supplies electricity to, among others, the capital of the country and Zmijivskaya in the Kharkiv region.
“Russia again attacked the DTEK thermal power plant. The equipment was seriously damaged. We are working to remove the effects of the shelling,” we read in the Telegram messenger. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, DTEK thermal power plants have been attacked more than 210 times.

The transmission system operator Ukrenergo announced that restrictions on electricity consumption on Sunday will apply in most regions around the clock. According to Ukrenergo, schedules of hourly interruptions in the supply of electricity to the population will be introduced on a rotational basis, from two to four time blocks per day. Restrictions will also apply in industry 24 hours a day.
Ukrenergo specified that due to the difficult situation in the energy system caused by Russian shelling, on Saturday the restrictive measures would have to remain in force until the end of the day, and not – as previously announced – until 9 p.m. for the public and until 22 for industry.
