PJSC Ukrhydroenergo has lost one unit at the Kakhovska hydroelectric power plant (HPP) occupied by Russian invaders on February 25, 2022, the company’s CEO Ihor Syrota has said.

“We lost one unit in Kakhovka. We will tell you more about how and why this happened after the war,” he said in an exclusive interview with Interfax-Ukraine.

At the same time, he said that the loss of the unit does not affect the safety of the HPP, despite the spring flood season.

“Safety is not affected, given that the flood is below average, we pass water through those that are,” Syrota explained.
