He also said the units are due to arrive in Kyiv next week.

Quote: "I thank our German partners for their help at such a difficult time for Kyiv, when our city is living and functioning in a crisis situation."

More details: Klitschko added that Kyiv already has five cogeneration units installed. Two are currently operating, supplying critical infrastructure facilities, while three more are being prepared for launch.

Background:

  • Azerbaijan has sent Ukraine five transformers, generators and other equipment for energy needs.
  • Ukraine's Foreign Ministry has released a list of assistance provided by Kyiv's partners in January.
  • Earlier, Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha urged people around the world to organise fundraising to support Ukrainians through a harsh winter and the ongoing damage to the energy system, as has been done in Poland.
