The State administration of the railroad transport of Ukraine (Ukrzaliznytsya) has no problems with coal deliveries from the anti-terrorist operation zone in the East.
To understand the impact of events in Donetsk and Lugansk on the Ukrainian coal industry, two main questions need to first be answered:
The occupied territories face problems with fuel, machinery and railroad, said the Ministry for energy and coal ministry Vladimir Demchyshin.
By the end of September Ukraine would have received the first ships with coal from the South African Republic.
In August Ukraine mined 3171 thousand tons of coal, down by 30.5% from the planned results.
As of September 1, DTEK thermal power stations warehouse 1.14 million tons of coal. Provided the deliveries face no hindrance, coal stocks will be further increased.
Centrenergo, desperately needing power-generating coal due to the military activity at Donbass, has imported the first 30 thousand tons of coal from Russia for Zmeyevka and Tripolye Thermal Power Stations.
DTEK has made first deliveries of anthracite coal from the Anti-terrorist operation zone via a new railroad delivery route Nikotovka-Mayorskaya.
