Ukrenergo reacted to the report about the threat of Russian missile attacks on the energy system of Ukraine during the coming cold weather period.

Company’s CEO Kudrytskyi assured that in the event of such attacks, there would be no collapse in Ukraine’s energy system.

‘This will not be the first time. We have already gone through it about 20 times. This, of course, will create additional problems for us. But I am sure there will be no collapse of the energy system. The enemy will not achieve this,’ he said.

According to Kudrytskyi, the drop in the temperature is a test for any energy system, and in order to pass this period without outages, all power plants must be brought into operation.

He also called on the population to use electricity sparingly.

In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine.

In 2025, the deadliest year yet for civilians, Ukraine’s three largest charitable foundations raised a record 105.9 billion hryvnias. It is more than the years 2022–2024 combined. According to the UN, humanitarian aid in Ukraine was delivered by more than 450 organisations, reaching five million people over the course of the year. Civic foundations hold licences to purchase lethal weapons, which is a function states have monopolised for centuries. These record sums were underwritten by international government grants, which means foreign states now channel billions directly through Ukrainian civic funds, bypassing inter-state channels. It is hard to imagine a stronger institutional trust in civil society.
