The Ukrenergo chief specified that currently, in many cases, backup power schemes are applied, therefore Ukraine needs to restore stationary power supply schemes for all regions, in particular destroyed substations and power plants.

"[We have to – ed.] maximize the fleet of power units that we will erate during the next winter period. This is the main task: to restore the power system's ability to cover winter-period consumption," Kudrytskyi concluded.
