Genuine question: how is it that Ukraine’s electricity grid still works to any degree despite being bombed for years and no doubt intentionally sabotaged / cyber attacked.
But a whole country’s grid can go down like this in an instant?

- selivanovp 1y agoThe answer is simple: EU and USA taxpayers billions pumped into Ukraine to buy hundreds of thousands of mobile diesel powered generators and fuel for them, and spare parts and replacement blocks for everything that’s been destroyed. On top of that, Ukraine inherited a lot of nuclear power plants, and despite losing the largest one in Zaporozhie region, still operates all the other as Russia doesn’t attack them in any serious way. No miracles, just pumping money non stop.
