During his visit to Volyn and Lviv regions, Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal inspected the progress of the construction of the second stage of protection facilities at power substations.

"The enemy has intensified attacks on civilian energy facilities. Last night we suffered losses in the power grid again. We are quickly repairing the damages. I am grateful to the power engineers for their hard work," the Head of Government noted.

Denys Shmyhal said that Ukraine had agreed with partner countries that have similar power equipment to supply it. According to him, this assistance is already being delivered.

"We are also strengthening the protection of energy facilities with air defense and electronic warfare systems. Despite this, some of the missiles and drones of russian terrorists still reach their targets. Therefore, we have to be conscious and consume electricity responsibly," the Prime Minister said.

According to the Head of Government, the relevant ministries are working to supply the frontline regions with so-called decentralized sources of electricity: gas turbines, cogeneration units, modular boiler houses.

"Decentralization of the power system is one of the most effective ways to make it less vulnerable to russian missiles and drones," emphasized Denys Shmyhal.
