Zaporizhzhiaoblenergo head: Relocating energy infrastructure underground is optimal solution
He said this in an interview with Ukrinform.
“Going underground is the optimal solution. Technically, it is feasible. We have already made certain decisions — both technical and repair-related. We are now gaining complex and unique experience. When the war ends, both our military and our energy specialists will be in demand,” Stasevskyi noted.
According to the company head, all critical energy facilities have already suffered from enemy strikes.
Stasevskyi urged Ukrainians to remain vigilant, warning of a difficult period ahead: “For at least another month we cannot afford to relax. After that it will get a little easier. But I will say this: we still have 40% of winter to get through in terms of energy security.”
As reported, Russian forces struck an infrastructure facility in Zaporizhzhia on the evening of February 10, leaving more than 11,000 customers without electricity.
