Аналіз напрямів вивчення наслідків катастрофи на Каховській ГЕС та можливих сценаріїв їх вирішення

Abstract

Another crime of the occupiers against the Ukrainian people was the blowing up of the dam of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, which took place on June 6, 2023, which was carried out in order to stop the advance of Ukrainian troops. The consequences of this man-made disaster were the shallowing of the Kakhovsky Reservoir, the water supply systems for the cooling ponds of the Zaporizhzhya NPP were destroyed, water shortages were caused in the Kherson, Zaporizhzhya, and Dnipropetrovsk regions, and the Black Sea was polluted by petroleum products. Along with the environmental and humanitarian catastrophe, the explosion of the Kakhovskaya HPP also led to an energy crisis, because Ukraine lost part of its water and energy capacity, as well as the ability to regulate the frequency and voltage in the power grid, and the water supply and irrigation of agricultural lands in the south of the country were disrupted. Today, the question of the expediency of reproducing the Kakhovskaya HPP remains relevant.
