KYIV, Sept 18 – Within preparation for the heating season 2024-2025, DTEK energy holding can rely primarily on its own efforts, since external assistance, which is currently estimated at $40 million, or 10% of needs, will arrive later, said Executive Director Dmytro Sakharuk.

"In order to restore all our damaged stations to the level of early March, we need $350-400 million. Now the aid that is starting to arrive is at the level of $40 million. And, unfortunately, the pace of its provision is very slow. The decision to allocate funds was made in April. Only now, this week, a decision is being made to determine the winners of contracts for the supply of equipment that will continue to arrive in the next 12 months," he said at the European Business Association event "Global Outlook: Fostering Unity" on Tuesday.
