Heating restored to 60% of consumers in Kherson
Heating supply has already been restored to 60% of consumers who receive heating from the local combined heat and power plant in the city of Kherson.
It is reported by Naftogaz [the largest national oil and gas company of Ukraine].
The city’s municipal services continue to repair the networks in order to supply heating to the rest of the houses.
"Despite attacks and constant power outages, experts are bringing back the heating to the liberated Kherson with titanic efforts. All of them risk their own lives and health every day, because energy infrastructure facilities, as you know, are in the enemy’s spotlight.
Understanding the scale of network destruction and the overall situation in the city, I can say that this is a heroic work. Thanks to all the experts, in particular the employees of Naftogaz Teplo [a branch of Naftogaz, producing electricity and thermal energy], who today are bringing life back to the liberated city. Your contribution is very important," said Oleksii Chernyshov, Head of the Executive Board of National Joint Stock Company Naftogaz of Ukraine.
Naftogaz explained that due to the significant destruction of networks in most neighbourhoods of the city, it is extremely difficult to restore the supply to all houses at once, but "the city's municipal services are working on providing heating 24/7."
"We thank the Kherson Oblast Military Administration for the cooperation, which contributed to the process of launching the heat carrier. Now the main work falls on the shoulders of municipal services, which are responsible for restoring networks and ensuring the supply of heating to residents' homes," Chernyshov added.
