Restoring DniproHES to its pre-missile strike condition will take at least three years. This requires not only repairing damaged elements but also attracting additional resources to increase the plant's resilience against potential future attacks from Russia. This was stated by Ukrhydroenergo CEO Ihor Syrota in an interview with Forbes, UNN reports .
It took a month and a half to clear the rubble after the shelling, and it was completed only on July 14. For the enemy, DniproHES is more accessible, the front line is 50 kilometers away.

According to him, it will take at least three years to restore the DniproHES to its pre-missile attack condition. It is also necessary to attract additional resources to improve the protection of the plant from possible future attacks by Russia.
It is noted that Ukrhydroenergo is preparing lawsuits in international and national courts to compensate for the damage caused by Russian shelling of the DniproHES, similar to the situation with the Kakhovka HPP. None of Ukraine's ten largest hydroelectric power plants have escaped the missile attacks - as of mid-July, more than 120 missile strikes have been launched against them.As a result of these attacks, Ukrhydroenergo has lost almost 45% of its electricity generation capacity.
Recall
The Dnipro hydroelectric power plant in Zaporizhzhia is in critical condition after a Russian missile attack.
