## Key points

- Russian forces struck the Trypillia power plant near Kyiv.
- Centrenergo says the damage could have serious consequences.
- The plant was destroyed in 2024 and was under repair.

## Summary

Russian forces struck the Trypillia Thermal Power Plant in Kyiv region, prompting state-owned Centrenergo to warn of “extremely serious” consequences. The attack matters because Ukraine’s energy infrastructure is already under pressure from repeated strikes, with blackouts and water outages affecting daily life as winter approaches.

The extent of the latest damage is not yet known and requires further inspection. Less than 30 kilometres south of Kyiv, Trypillia once supplied power to Kyiv, Zhytomyr and Cherkasy regions, but was destroyed in April 2024, eliminating all of Centrenergo’s generating capacity. Repairs have faced further Russian attacks and a 2026 investigation into alleged embezzlement of more than $1 million.
