Head of Ukrenergo: Due to large-scale destruction of energy infrastructure, Ukraine risks being left without electricity at all

Today, the head of the national energy company (NEC) "Ukrenergo" Volodymyr Kudrytsky made a statement regarding the damage to the country's energy infrastructure facilities. According to him, due to its large-scale destruction, Ukraine risks being left without electricity at all.

The level of damage has reached an unprecedented rate. At this stage, it is obvious that most of the objects are either damaged or destroyed. And we are talking here not only about the substations of NPC Ukrenergo, but also about other power plants - thermal power plants, hydroelectric power plants, as well as thermal power plants. The damage is really significant, and their full recovery may take not even months, but years.

Kudritsky noted.

According to the head of the board of Ukrenergo, the most significant damage to energy facilities was recorded in the Kharkiv and Mykolaiv regions, as well as in the districts of the Kherson region controlled by Kyiv.

At the same time, he acknowledged that theoretically the country was indeed under the threat of a complete power outage, however, as Kudritsky clarified, there are currently no prerequisites for this in practice.

Recall that the strikes by Russian high-precision weapons on objects of critical important civil infrastructure of Ukraine have practically not been stopped by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation since October 10 last year. The reason for this was the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge, which took place on October 8 and was behind which the Ukrainian special services stood.

Earlier in Ukraine, it was stated that up to 50 percent of the entire energy infrastructure of the country was damaged or destroyed by strikes.

Head of Ukrenergo: Due to large-scale destruction of energy infrastructure...

We are not distracted by chatter and continue to thresh all these reproachful women, or whatever they are ...

[Igor Smirnov]

ian (Mikhalych), of course, it turns out again and again with its stupidity and mediocrity of the military leadership of the Russian Federation to increase the influx of volunteers into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, because they have absolutely EVERYTHING is normal with power supply. Not far from me is a military registration and enlistment office (a recruitment center for a new one in Ukraine), so so 1 time for all the time, only the light disappeared for 2 hours after all these shellings. .Firstly, the Armed Forces of Ukraine pay well and they are already provided for EVERYONE. Secondly, the destruction of energy only embitters everyone and nothing more. The Russian Federation is already cursed by those who once treated it very loyally. Thirdly, completely cut off the light it won’t work out. The Russian Federation is still pumping oil, gas, etc. across the territory of Ukraine and, accordingly, bombing everything! ove sells, despite the bombing. But these stories about cutting down the enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Ukraine are ridiculous. Ukraine has almost ALL of Europe and the rear and the supplier of everything.

[Nickelium]

Some complete nonsense. They've been angry at us since '91. As for the volunteers - nonsense. Nobody wants to be meat. So better work, otherwise you won't see the hryvnia.

...... Ukraine risks being left without electricity at all

Will not remain. People are massively buying up gasoline (diesel) generators, they are being brought from Poland. If anything, China will increase supplies.

[Lech from Android.]

And how will these cheap generators cover the needs of the industry .

[fruc]

Lech from Android. ...And how these cheap generators will cover the needs of the industry

I would not say that they are too cheap, but they are suitable for individual needs, especially in private households for starting heating, lighting, cooking, etc.

[Aristarkh Lyudvigovich]

Quote: frruc

but suitable for individual needs

This is an expensive pleasure. For petrol generators:
3 kW, gasoline consumption - 1,05 l / h;
4 kW, gasoline consumption - 1,4 l / h;
5 kW, gasoline consumption - 1,75 l / h;
6 kW, gasoline consumption - 2,1 l / h;
7 kW, gasoline consumption - 2,45 l / h;
8 kW, gasoline consumption - 2,8 l / h;
9 kW, gasoline consumption - 3,2 l / h;
10 kW, gasoline consumption - 4 l / h.

[ratoborets]

It is worth adding that the depreciation costs of the generators themselves add a significant part of the cost of electricity.
If we are not talking about powerful, expensive industrial generators with a large margin of safety (for the Far North, ships, etc.), then those that Ukrainians buy are not designed for permanent use, but only for temporary power outages. If you use them constantly, then they fail very quickly.

[dmi.pris1]

And what about energy-intensive production. And yes, you probably never used a stand-alone generator for a long time ..

[fruc]

dmi.pris1 :...You've probably never used a standalone generator for a long time..

I didn’t use it for a long time (with a power of 4 kV), I started it several times a day, and there were enough households for neighbors. There is no talk about industrial production here.

[dmi.pris1]

4 kW? And everyone had enough? Hmm ... Is it possible to support the boiler, but turn on the computer with the TV ..

[Zoldat_A]

Quote from: dmi.pris1

Yes comp with tv turn on..

To tell on the Internet how you can connect half of the village to 4 kW.

[fruc]

dmi.pris1 ... Is it possible to support the boiler, but turn on the computer with the TV ..

Yes, turn on the heating boiler, TV and lighting. Do you suggest taking a sauna with electric heaters?

[begemot20091]

It's good to hang noodles already. A two-burner electric stove with cast iron burners has a minimum power of 2000W, a four-burner electric stove with cast-iron burners, as a rule, has a power of 5000W, a four-burner stove with induction hobs can have a power of 10400W. And also an iron, a hairdryer, a computer, a light, a boiler .... I'm not saying to turn on the kettle and the oven at the same time - the generator will "lie down" this second, and you are hanging noodles about your neighbors. I have 7 kW in my apartment. The kettle and oven are still working at the same time. It is better not to turn on the iron at this time, because the light is still on in some places and the computer is working.

[private person]

I have 7 kW in my apartment.

Let me ask you, how exactly did you get 7 kW? Maybe it's the installed power? Kilowatts are not brought into the house, but this is the power consumed.

[gsev]

Quote from: dmi.pris1

And what about energy-intensive production. And yes, you probably never used a stand-alone generator for a long time ..

With a power consumption of 300 kW by your plant in Russia, it makes sense to buy 2 Chinese or European gas-powered generators. One will work, one will be on standby. You can stop using centralized energy and get big savings by switching from buying electricity to buying gas. If Russia really wants to undermine Ukraine's energy, it should stop pumping natural gas through its territory to Europe. Otherwise, the Europeans will simply supply high-quality Chinese generators to Ukraine and allow it to consume Russian transit gas. Z00 kilowatts is about 30 16K20 machines, that is, two workshops at the machine plant. Surely gas-powered generators have already been purchased by NATO countries for Ukraine and have begun to be installed to power hospitals, military and industrial facilities. If there is no gas, then NATO will get several billion dollars. Serbia, Hungary, Bulgaria and Moldova must understand the position of Russia, which will soon be forced to stop gas supplies to these countries if it does not want to lose Crimea and Donbass.

Decentralized power supply on the scale of the country is difficult, expensive, unstable, labile to all sorts of incidents like a rocket hitting a server or just a fire.
The "Greens" in Germany were running around with this idea. But mostly they were those who skipped physics lessons at school.

I remember a couple - three years ago, the Volkswagen concern pedaled the topic on
the introduction of generators in Germany based on a diesel four-pot (fire - I don’t remember exactly on the basis of which engine) as an electricity generator.

On the generators, no one will go far. Crimea sat on them for six months. If people have not forgotten. And personally I, including. This golden electricity will come out however.

The private sector is not interested. The trick here is that factory machines do not turn, mill, drill, or weld, and, accordingly, the possibility of manufacturing or repairing used equipment is excluded, as well as the production of used supplies, drones and other products needed for the army. The railway is de-energized and it is necessary to resurrect locomotives that will gobble up solarium, which tanks will no longer gobble up. And the fact that on a farm near Dikanka some kind of Mykola turns the dynamo, it doesn’t matter, let him turn

In my humble opinion, strike sites are chosen in such a way that missile consumption is maximized and consequences are minimal.

Well, it's time for the great ukrams to return to their roots - to change decorative plumbing to wild-growing ones - water intakes will not work without electricity, and sewerage will not work without water intakes. Cities will turn into deposits of... um... guano. So a fire, a torch, drinking from open reservoirs, delicious cannibalism and other small joys of complete unity with wildlife

The only annoying thing is that the maximum destruction is in the eastern regions, which we then have to restore. And the most zapadenskie destroyed much less.

Where there is more resistance, there is more destruction. Everything is logical.

The conversation is about energy. I somehow didn’t hear about the battles directly on the territories of thermal power plants or electrical substations, but in the east they were destroyed by our strikes much more than in the west.

[EFIM LYUBIN]

Do you think that in ukroreikh there is a bottomless amount of gasoline and diesel fuel for these mini generators?

[engineer74]

There was such an interesting thing during the war in Yugoslavia, it was called a "graphite bomb" - carbon fiber was hung on high-voltage circuits and they were short-lived ... Then the effectiveness of this crap was not highly estimated in our country ... Maybe we should reconsider our views?

No one will do this - because there is a threat of de-energizing three nuclear power plants with all the consequences.

[Carlos Hall]

They are in despair. The destruction of the Ukrainian energy system was Russia's greatest strategic victory.

the country is really threatened

It is somehow strange: "the threat of a complete power outage really hangs over the country, however ... at present, in practice, there are no prerequisites for this."
It's a pity.)

[gsev]

Quote from Egeni

There are no preconditions for this."

There are few strikes against powerful NPP transformers and their machine rooms. Using massively geraniums for 3 raids only on substations of nuclear power plants, it would be possible to achieve the result that they could achieve by January 1, 2023.

[ratoborets]

According to the head of the board of Ukrenergo, the most significant damage to energy facilities was recorded in the Kharkiv and Mykolaiv regions, as well as in the districts of the Kherson region controlled by Kyiv.

A couple of dozen calibers for each of the thermal power plants in Western Ukraine (ZU): Ladyzhinskaya, Burshtynskaya, Dobrotvorskaya, which provide the lion's share of energy for storage, so that they could not be restored at all or it took years to restore. And at the substations of the Khmelnytsky and Rivne nuclear power plants, in order to finally plunge the memory into the Middle Ages, cut off the supply of weapons by trains running on electric traction from the West.
As a bonus, the most stubborn nationalists and Russophobes in Western Ukraine will find themselves in the Middle Ages.

[Osipov9391]

This can give NATO a carte blanche to send its troops to at least Western Ukraine under the auspices of the IAEA and the UN.

And how do 3 more nuclear power plants feel? (Am I right?) 12 power units, for a minute. They say something about them.

They work somehow. Some are under renovation, some are working.
And because of this, no one will completely break up the energy system in Ukraine.

construction and transition to the 6th technological order.

Is this in Ukraine? ?

.The price of a solarium and service staff was transferred to the end user.

And the end consumer counted and bought made in china.

[Osipov9391]

For those who are not in the subject.
No one will completely destroy the energy system of Ukraine (especially the 750 kV network).
For one simple reason - in the territory controlled by Kyiv there are 3 nuclear power plants and 9
power units on them.
So, according to all the rules, they need a connection with the power system to duplicate the power supply for their own needs in the event of a shutdown of all power units.
This happened at the Khmelnitsky NPP. Then she eats energy from a network of 330 or 750 kV.
But everything is duplicated more than once.
If for some reason the connection with the power system is broken or the power reserve in it does not allow powering the units' own needs, the diesel generators will work.
They must cool down the reactors for several days, putting them into a "sleep" mode.
If this does not work or there is no diesel fuel, then there are batteries and tanks in which there is water
under air pressure.
Then such an emergency cooling system will work.

But in any case, the latter is already an emergency and a step before a nuclear accident.
A major nuclear accident that even happened at one unit of the Khmelnitsky or Rivne nuclear power plant
hit Belarus.
If on the South Ukrainian - can hook the Crimea.

[Hadji Murat]

Go on and on, although of course everyone is waiting for strikes on bridges across the Dnieper, judging by Putin's New Year's speech, maybe we'll wait, simultaneously with the start of a strategic offensive operation

[Osipov9391]

The task of strikes on bridges is the task of aviation.
But not for the kind we have, the level of the early 90s and earlier.
There are no planning bombs, there are no means of breaking through air defense.
Even an air defense breakthrough 40 years ago.
Already a year soon, who knows how to draw conclusions.

[Il'nur]

their full recovery may take not even months, but years

Let them restore it if they can, and this is unlikely, the ukroskauses have not built anything at all in 30 years, they use what the hated Mordor of the USSR built for them (we say the USSR, we mean Russia). And the USSR built a lot for them ...

[Cuban]

and even better if such destruction will be in Florida, California or Texas, and in Tel Aviv too; only when China Russia Iran Cuba Venezuela northern Korea India unite into one military bloc and oppose NATO and transfer the war to the USA and Israel can we talk about some kind of victory - everything else is a stupid destruction of the infrastructure of the USSR, which plays into the hands of Jews and Britons

[Kaufman]

Whoever says anything, however, you won’t get far on generators, even in everyday life. And the industry in general can stand up.
Earlier, there were thoughts about the withdrawal of the energy system with one blow, but for two months of intense strikes, and still nothing. And how many resources were spent on these strikes, the same strategists - this is very expensive, very. Well, we will use up the resource of aircraft, what's next? Not quite clear. Not at all clear

[Nickelium]

It is not clear - a march under Bakhmut. Everything is clear and crisp there.
