UNICEF donates generator to Kyivvodokanal for backup power

UNICEF Ukraine has donated a generator for backup power to one of the water supply facilities in the capital. According to Kyivvodokanal, the new equipment will help maintain the stable operation of the water supply system in the event of power outages and increase the resilience of the city's critical infrastructure to energy threats.

The handover of the generator is another step in the long-standing cooperation between Kyivvodokanal and UNICEF. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the organization has systematically supported the enterprise in strengthening energy resilience and modernizing the water supply infrastructure.

With the support of UNICEF, two water supply pumping stations were reconstructed, including the replacement of pumping equipment and the installation of frequency converters. In addition, two water supply stations were equipped with pumping units powered by diesel engines, which can operate independently of centralized power supply. The company also received modern laboratory equipment to enhance the control of drinking water quality.
