Lithuania to provide Ukraine with large-sized equipment for repair of TPPs - Energy Ministry
The enemy has changed its tactics, and the current attacks have much more complicated consequences for Ukraine, Galushchenko said
Lithuania will provide assistance to Ukraine's energy sector, in particular, supplying large-sized units for thermal power plants (TPPs), the press service of the Ministry of Energy reports, citing an online conversation between Ukrainian Energy Minister Herman Galushchenko and his Lithuanian counterpart Dainius Kreivis.
Galushchenko informed the head of the Lithuanian Energy Ministry about the consequences of recent Russian attacks on the Ukrainian energy sector.
"Compared to last year, the enemy has changed its tactics, and the current attacks have much more complicated consequences for us. Thermal power generation has suffered very serious damage, and the enemy is systematically attacking substations and hydroelectric generation facilities," he said.
For his part, Kravis stressed that Lithuania is ready to support Ukraine and provide equipment to help with restoration and repair work.
The ministers agreed that a group of Ukrainian energy specialists from public and private sector companies would soon visit Lithuania.
During the visit, Ukrainian specialists will visit a number of Lithuanian energy facilities to verify equipment that will be subsequently transferred to the Ukrainian energy sector. In particular, it is large-sized equipment for thermal power plants, which is extremely important for the Ukrainian energy sector, which has lost a significant amount of thermal generation due to the enemy attack.
"We have already received two powerful autotransformers and 72 cargoes with other necessary power equipment weighing over 1,300 tonnes from the Lithuanian side," the minister said.
At the same time, Dainius Kravis noted that Lithuania is considering the possibility of transferring another powerful autotransformer.
Background. As reported, Lithuania is ready to allocate all frozen assets of the Russian Federation in the country to help Ukraine – 79.5 million euros and $8.5 million have been frozen in the country.
