History


Enerhodar was founded on 12 June 1970 for building and serving the Zaporizhzhia thermal power station. It obtained city status by 1985, while part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic of the Soviet Union. Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, was built there in the 1980s (construction of the building began in 1980, and its first unit was commissioned in late 1985). In 1991, the city became part of independent Ukraine.

The city's two power plants continue to be major employers for its inhabitants into the 21st century.


Russo-Ukrainian War


On 28 February 2022, Russia claimed to have captured the city and the nuclear power plant. The mayor of Enerhodar, Dmytro Orlov, denied the claim.[7]

Civilians built a large barricade of sandbags and vehicles on the road to the nuclear power plant in an attempt to hinder Russian troop advancement.[8] The Ukrainian military administration for the southeast confirmed on 7 March that Enerhodar had been occupied by Russian forces.[9]
