A russian drone killed a DTEK energy worker in Odesa region today.
The crew had just left the site after an air raid alert, pulling back to a safe distance in line with protocol, when the drone struck their vehicle. A second worker was injured and is receiving medical care.
DTEK is supporting the families of both men.

We want to share with you the people behind the repairs after russian attacks: the energy workers who step in, solve difficult problems and help bring damaged infrastructure back to life.
After almost 24 years in energy, Ruslan now leads electrical equipment repairs at DTEK, helping tackle some of the hardest restoration work after Russian strikes.
“Behind every result is the team we work with every day. You can’t do this alone.” - he says.
Ruslan’s story is one of many behind Ukraine’s energy recovery, people whose experience, teamwork and persistence keep the system moving forward.

Reuters, Bloomberg, The Times and the Kyiv Independent were among the international media covering the DFC's financing for DTEK battery storage project last week.
The story goes beyond a single transaction: it’s a signal that international capital can be mobilised for Ukraine’s energy sector even during wartime.

Six battery storage sites. Built and already operating in Ukraine.
This is one of the country’s most important new energy projects. How does it work, and why does it matter as russia continues to target the power system?
Take a closer look at our battery storage project, backed by DFC. 🇺🇸🇺🇦

The United States is backing Ukraine's energy future. 🇺🇸🇺🇦
@DFCgov has approved financing for DTEK's 200 MW / 400 MWh battery storage project - one of its largest debt finance transactions for Ukraine, and the largest for its energy sector since russia's full-scale invasion in 2022.

How do we stop things from breaking? That's the question most energy planning asks.
Our CSO Jeff Oatham says it's the wrong one. The real question is how fast you can recover when something does.

Our energy workers restored power to more than 560,000 Ukrainian families in one week alone following russian attacks.
For hundreds of thousands of people, that meant homes lit again, routines restored, and one less disruption russia was able to impose.

As Ukraine prepares for its fifth winter since russia’s full-scale invasion, its energy system enters the season stronger and better prepared than a year ago.
We have restored capacity, built reserves and strengthened protection. But air defence remains critical to keeping the country powered through further russian attacks.
We are grateful to everyone standing with Ukraine and helping strengthen our energy resilience. Together, we can protect the progress made and keep building a stronger energy future for Ukraine.

Two of our colleagues were killed by russia yesterday.
Vitalii Huba was 39. Yevhen Shevchenko was 43. Four more DTEK employees were injured when russian drones struck the crowded city centre in broad daylight.
Behind every russian attack are lives, families and colleagues who will never be the same.
Our deepest condolences to Vitalii and Yevhen’s loved ones. We will stand by their families and support our injured colleagues through their recovery.
