Deep Read: Wie ein ganzes Kraftwerk von Deutschland in die Ukraine gebracht wird
Über Rüstungshilfen für die Ukraine wird viel gesprochen. Genauso wichtig ist die Hilfe für die Energieversorgung. Es geht um Zehntausende Bauteile – und ein gigantisches Unterfangen.
In the town of Lubmin, Germany, a small power plant generates 84 megawatts of electricity by heating gas, which is then fed into the German power grid. However, since the Russian aggression on Ukraine in 2022, Russia has stopped supplying gas through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Lubmin. As a result, this combined heat and power facility (KWK) no longer serves a purpose in Germany.
Yet, situated just a few hundred kilometers away, the entire plant is set to embark on its second life in Ukraine. Ironically, it was Russia's actions that rendered the plant obsolete in Germany, yet now it is desperately needed in Ukraine.
