According to the results for January–September 2026, the manufacturers produced and repaired over 1,200 units of mining equipment. This total includes new heading and shearer machines, as well as electric motors.
Coordination of the energy team efforts
“Winter preparation is a joint effort of the entire energy team,” stated DTEK Energo Chief Executive Officer Oleksandr Fomenko.
According to the company head, miners, power engineers, repair personnel, and machine builders operate as a single coordinated mechanism. The overall readiness of domestic energy infrastructure depends on the reliability of each link.
Testing technical solutions in real conditions
Industry enterprises not only manufacture and restore equipment but also test new engineering solutions. The performance verification takes place directly in actual production conditions at the mines.
The management emphasizes the high cost of stability during the winter period. All workers are making maximum efforts to support reliable generation despite ongoing challenges.
