Russia has systematically targeted and destroyed power turbines in Ukraine as part of a sustained campaign to cripple the country's energy infrastructure.

Direct Destruction: In April 2024, Russian strikes completely destroyed the Trypillya power plant near Kyiv, with its chairman confirming that missiles destroyed "the transformer, the turbines, the generators" and put the facility out of use.
Strategic Targeting: Energy officials and analysts note that Russian missiles have specifically targeted turbines and generators because these components are the most complex and expensive to repair or replace.

Widespread Impact: Since the full-scale invasion began, Russia has attacked nearly every power plant in Ukraine, disabling approximately 43.5 GW of generation capacity (over 70% of pre-war levels) by destroying maneuverable thermal and hydroelectric facilities where turbines are located.

Repair Challenges: The destruction of turbines has created a critical bottleneck, as large-capacity turbines are custom-made products that can take months or years to replace, significantly prolonging blackouts even after other damage is fixed.
