The British Defense Intelligence Agency stated that Russia was unable to bring Ukraine's power system to a halt by the end of 2022, and this action has now been effectively contained.
On October 10, 2022, Ukraine suspended electricity exports after Russia launched its first large-scale attack on the Ukrainian power grid.
Cracking down on Ukraine's domestic energy system has consumed a large amount of Russian missile inventory, failed to achieve the established goals, and failed to completely surrender Ukraine in the past winter. It seems that this strategy has failed again.
Obviously, Russia's attack on Ukraine's power system has failed, as Ukraine has ensured domestic electricity usage and exported excess electricity, even more than in 2022.
On April 7, 2023, Ukrainian Energy Minister Halushchenko signed an administrative order allowing for the resumption of electricity exports in the event of excess power generation capacity.
The report shows that due to overcapacity in the power system, Ukraine can generate approximately $13.2 million in profits from electricity exports.
