🇺🇦 🇷🇺 💡 What happened to Ukrainian substations after the strikes by the Russian Armed Forces?

During our examination of the consequences of Russian attacks on the Ukrainian economy, we determined, based on indirect signs of repair work, the approximate damage that Ukrainian utility workers still need to address.

However, the planned removal of substation equipment for repairs was complicated by the lack of reserve equipment.

A significant amount of equipment was destroyed by massive strikes from Russian troops on Ukrainian energy infrastructure facilities, with the most recent attack occurring on March 9, 2023.

❗️Nevertheless, in the past months, we have analyzed photographs of the six largest Ukrainian 750 kV substations that were targeted, and we have successfully determined the extent of the damage.

The results have surpassed our expectations. Four substations are almost completely non-functional and can only be used to a limited extent for electricity transit, while the remaining two are operating at reduced power.
