Ukraine is importing electricity - link
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 18th, 2024 4:06 PM Author: Brilliant Sneaky Criminal If you (like me) wondered how Ukraine is keeping the lights on with all their power plants being destroyed- this seems to be the answer. They previously had enough excess capacity to export power but are now importing it from Europe and will likely have to keep doing so.
Could be a lot worse - it's a big hit to Ukraine's budget, but they will be getting 9.8 billion in US budget support from the US in the new bill, will get a few billion in interest from Russia's seized assets. And since Europe and Ukraine's power is now interchangeable, Europe can do things like bring in Turkish power plants to areas in Europe far from the danger zone. Even Germany or somewhere like that to ease demand in Europe. |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:13 PM Author: disrespectful death wish casino So now billions of dollars/euros that were going to Ukraine are now being spent on providing basic electricity. You don't see why that is catastrophic? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5519121&forum_id=2#47593477) |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:15 PM Author: disrespectful death wish casino Odessa will be a while because that requires a massive river crossing. They will reach the Eastern part of Kiev before they cross to begin the move on Odessa. Over the next 1-2 years you'll see Russia take everything to the east of the Dnepr. Then you'll see a pause and a huge push for a peace deal from all sorts of folks at that point. I suspect that will fail and Russia will launch the attack on Odessa when all their pieces are in place. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5519121&forum_id=2#47593485) |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:25 PM Author: Brilliant Sneaky Criminal Starting soon they will be getting a few billion each year in interest from Russia's seized funds. That's money that fell from the sky, no one in the West has to pay for it.
I expect that few billion will cancel out the cost of electricity losses. |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:26 PM Author: avocado weed whacker brethren They aren't getting that. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5519121&forum_id=2#47593516) |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:28 PM Author: Brilliant Sneaky Criminal The hell they aren't. It's a done deal. It's the seizure of the principal that is uncertain. Their is broad agreement on the legality of non-retroactive seizure of interest from frozen Russian funds. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5519121&forum_id=2#47593525) |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:31 PM Author: Curious Crawly Cumskin You must understand. Most rus-posters fall into a few categories, the ones ITT are just spouting top-level glavset talking points and then barking at anyone disagreeing (even in very minor ways) as being "cope".

""Emergency electricity supplies from Romania, Poland and Slovakia were made yesterday [17 April] during the evening peak hours. The amount of assistance was less than 1% of the daily electricity consumption," the Energy Ministry noted.
Emergency assistance from the transmission system operators of these countries is also being engaged as of the morning of 18 April. The forecast volume of attracted electricity supplies will amount to about 2% of the total consumption."
In other words, the assistance is really small and any additional attacks (which, will almost certainly happen) will cause significant pain. |

Date: April 18th, 2024 4:28 PM Author: Curious Crawly Cumskin The inanity of rus-mo's responses is off the charts. I think they read my name and just start barking nonsense.
ITT I posted one sentence:
"This recent chimpout was very unfortunately but foreseeable."
Apparently posting anything is "off the charts." |

Date: April 18th, 2024 5:00 PM Author: Brilliant Sneaky Criminal Here are the words of the Ukrainian official:
"This is having dramatic economic effects," Ustenko said. "It's very unlikely we will be able to continue exports and probably will be needing to import electricity."
Sounds serious but not stone age serious. The article says winter will be the real problem, but that's only a few months of the year and they have a long time to get ready. |
