Since the start of the illegal aggression by Russia, the European Commission has strongly supported Ukraine. Several important measures have already been taken (EU solidarity with Ukraine).

 

Unfortunately, the recent drone attacks focused on infrastructures and destroyed more than half of the energy facilities of the country. It is of utmost importance to help Ukrainian SMEs and households get swift access to energy supplies in view of the winter temperature that can drop to as low as -20°C.

 

We would be grateful if companies or other actors could donate energy equipment from the list below.

 

WHAT IS NEEDED?

• Power transformers and generators; Heaters; Fuel and oil; Cars for repair brigades; Tools.

 

• Electricity: Insulators, cables, wires, cable connectors, cable couplings, disconnectors, isolation valves, traverses, welding machines, vacuum & air switches, microcontrollers.

 

• Liquids: fuels and oil, transformer/motor oils, chemicals.
