Deputy Minister of Energy of Ukraine Roman Andarak met with Davide La Cecilia, Special Representative of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for the Reconstruction and Sustainability of Ukraine.

Roman Andarak informed the Italian delegation about the current state of Ukraine’s energy sector following the recent overnight attacks on infrastructure. He noted that the enemy continues to deliberately target power generation facilities and substations; however, Ukrainian energy companies are managing to restore the system promptly after each strike.

The Ministry of Energy, chaired by Deputy Minister Mykola Kolisnyk, held a meeting dedicated to mechanisms for preventing fuel shortages, diversifying supply routes, and building strategic reserves in wartime conditions.

The meeting brought together representatives of the Ministry for Communities and Territorial Development, the Ministry of Finance, the State Customs Service, the Energy Customs Office, JSC Ukrzaliznytsia, Naftogaz Group, JSC Ukrtransnafta, JSC Ukrnafta, as well as commercial companies active on the petroleum products market.

Energy workers will begin assessing the damage and carrying out restoration work as soon as the security situation allows.

We ask everyone to remain calm and follow safety precautions.

Every year, on the fourth Saturday of November, Ukraine commemorates the millions of people who died during the Holodomor genocide of 1932–1933, as well as the mass, man-made famines of 1921–1923 and 1946–1947.

In 1932–1933, the communist totalitarian regime deliberately committed the crime of genocide against the Ukrainian people.
Today, in the 21st century, Russia — the successor of that regime — continues the policy of erasing Ukrainian identity.

The issue of fair electricity distribution is one of the most common amid large-scale attacks that leave people without power. Many mistakenly believe that electricity can be evenly directed to any region of the country — but this is not the case.

In recent days, we have received many questions about whether Ukraine is currently exporting electricity to European countries.

In short: no, this is not true. Electricity generated by Ukrainian nuclear, hydro, thermal power plants, and CHP plants is used exclusively to meet domestic consumption needs.

Here is a detailed explanation:

The Ministry of Energy hosted a meeting of the Steering Committee of the Ukrainian–Danish Energy Partnership Programme. Participants reviewed the results of six months of joint work, discussed key areas of cooperation for 2026, and outlined long-term strategic priorities.

November 21 is Dignity and Freedom Day - a day when we honor the strength of our people and their resilience in the struggle for the right to live in a free and democratic state.

Today, we remember those who became symbols of our dignity and courage. Among them is Serhiy Baidovsky, a 23-year-old oil and gas worker from Novovolynsk, who gave his life for Ukraine’s freedom.

Unfortunately, during massive Russian missile and drone attacks, Ukrainian energy workers are periodically forced to reduce the output of Ukraine’s nuclear power plants.

There are several reasons for these measures:
