Details: The company stated that since late September, Russian forces have significantly increased the intensity of strikes on the plant and changed their tactics, specifically using ballistic missiles and jet-powered attack drones.

Although protective structures are installed at the Trypilska TPP, Russian forces can attack a single facility with various types of weapons over a short period of time, creating new challenges for its protection.

Quote: "Even now it is obvious that the consequences of the Russian strikes are extremely serious. However, it is too early to talk about the specific extent of the destruction."

Details: The damage and the scope of the necessary repair work will be determined after a detailed inspection of the damaged equipment and infrastructure.

For reference: The Trypilska TPP is an important source of power generation for Kyiv, Cherkasy and Zhytomyr oblasts.

Background: A Russian attack on 30 September damaged generating equipment at the Trypilska TPP. At the time, Centrenergo reported that their priority was to assess the condition of the equipment and determine the scope of repairs.
