Lithuania provided aid to Ukraine for the energy sector

According to glavcom.ua: The Lithuanian electricity transmission system operator Litgrid has transferred a new batch of aid to Ukraine for the needs of the energy sector. The equipment was gathered from various regions of Lithuania and successfully delivered to Ukraine. This was reported by 'Glavkom' citing the Ministry of Energy.

The cargo contains critically important equipment for restoring substations and power lines, which enables the strengthening and support of the stable operation of the energy system. The received aid will be used for operational repairs of damaged networks.

Aid in restoring the energy system

The Ministry of Energy adds that the transfer of such equipment helps Ukrainian energy workers to more quickly restore the operation of networks and maintain stable electricity supply for consumers.

This is already the sixth aid package that Litgrid is transferring to Ukraine. Earlier, the company provided autotransformers and other key components of the transmission system, such as switches, disconnectors, current and voltage transformers, surge protectors, insulators, relay protection and automation devices, as well as various other equipment and materials for the transmission system needed to strengthen the energy infrastructure.

Measures to limit electricity due to attacks on energy facilities

It is worth noting that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky explained that Vladimir Putin gives orders for strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure because it is the only way he can try to break the Ukrainian society.

It is noted that tomorrow, November 18, measures to limit electricity consumption will be implemented in most regions of Ukraine. The reason for the restrictions is the consequences of massive Russian missile and drone attacks on energy facilities.

Lithuania provided Ukraine with aid in the form of critically important equipment for restoring the energy system, which will help to more quickly restore the operation of networks and ensure stable electricity supply for the population.
