With the support of the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Interior, energy companies in the Chernivtsi, Chernihiv, and Kyiv regions have received critical equipment from the Ministry of Energy’s emergency energy assistance hubs to enhance the resilience of energy infrastructure.

The assistance will support the restoration and modernisation of electricity networks, ensure backup power supply, and strengthen the preparedness of energy infrastructure for the upcoming autumn and winter season.

- As a result of hostilities and attacks on energy infrastructure, some consumers in the Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Sumy, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Kherson regions remain temporarily without electricity.

- Restoration works are ongoing wherever the security situation permits. Ukrainian power engineers are working around the clock to restore electricity supply to homes as quickly as possible.

Thanks to contributions from international partners to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund, several Ukrainian regions have received critical equipment worth nearly EUR 5 million to restore and strengthen energy infrastructure.

With the support of Estonia, auxiliary equipment for the maintenance of energy infrastructure was delivered to the Zaporizhzhia region.

Sweden’s contribution enabled the procurement of important equipment for Ukraine’s oil and gas sector.

Support from Luxembourg financed the purchase of key energy equipment components for the Kharkiv region.

The Ministry of Energy of Ukraine has completed the second stage of investing funds from the Financial Reserve in domestic government war bonds (OVDPs).

The Financial Reserve is formed through regular contributions from JSC NNEGC Energoatom. Previously, these funds were held in bank accounts, where they gradually lost value due to inflation. Investing in government securities protects the reserve against inflation, preserves its purchasing power, and increases its value through returns generated by government bonds.

Between January and the end of July 2026, 40 healthcare facilities commissioned their own electricity generation systems under the Ray of Hope project. The combined installed capacity of the commissioned solar power plants totals 3,249 kW.

A further 113 facilities are currently at various stages of implementation, five healthcare facilities are at the final stage of commissioning, and 144 medical institutions are in the process of developing technical solutions.

- Restoration work is underway wherever the security situation permits. Energy workers continue to make every effort to restore electricity supply to Ukrainian households as quickly as possible.

The Chernihiv region has received 6.33 tonnes of humanitarian assistance from the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine’s emergency energy assistance hubs. The equipment was provided by Switzerland.

The assistance from TETRA LAVAL INTERNATIONAL SA includes a trailer-mounted diesel generator, a stationary diesel generator, and six portable petrol generators. The equipment will be used to provide backup power for critical infrastructure facilities and energy enterprises across the region.

First Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine – Minister of Energy Denys Shmyhal chaired a meeting with the leadership of NPC Ukrenergo, JSC NNEGC Energoatom, PJSC Ukrhydroenergo, Naftogaz Group, and the National Energy and Utilities Regulatory Commission (NEURC) to discuss preparations for the expected period of peak electricity demand caused by exceptionally hot weather.

“Weather forecasters predict an abnormal heatwave as early as next week, which, according to our estimates, could increase electricity consumption by 1 GW,” Denys Shmyhal said.

The Cherkasy Regional Centre for Disease Control and Prevention has commissioned a photovoltaic power plant and an autonomous backup power supply system.

In June 2026, more than 200 solar panels were installed on the premises of the Centre. The photovoltaic power plant has a capacity of 93 kW, while the battery storage system can store up to 115 kWh of electricity.
