Ukrhydroenergo answers whether it makes sense to build a new HPP
Kakhovka HPP affected the water supply of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia and Mykolaiv regions, so Ukraine needs a new plant anyway.
Ihor Syrota, CEO of Ukrhydroenergo, said this on the air of the United News telethon.
According to him, the environmental disaster caused by the Russians will have consequences for both agriculture and industry.
Syrota noted that Kakhovka HPP also served as a regulating capacity for alternative sources that have begun to develop in Kherson and Mykolaiv regions. “These are solar panels and wind power generation.
– We are already developing projects today and looking at what needs to be done and how to complete them quickly. However, the implementation of such a project will take at least five years,” said Ukrhydroenergo CEO.
On the night of 5-6 June, Russian troops blew up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station. The Ukrainian side has already stated that there is evidence of deliberate destruction of the dam.
