The company expects that by the end of January 2022 the country will receive approximately 470,000 tons of coal. The second pot coal is designed to meet the needs of DTEK Energo thermal power plants.
The first batch of American coal for Centerenergo’s state-owned thermal power plants arrived on November 20. These supplies were announced earlier by President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Earlier, Prime Minister Denis Shmygal denied information about the alleged introduction of “fan outages” in Ukraine. According to him, the Ukrainian power system will pass the period of severe frosts stably, although there are some problems, including low coal reserves in the warehouses of coal-fired power plants.
