DTEK Energy is accepting two more Panamax class ships from the United States in Ukrainian ports.

According to the company's press release, the seventh vessel with 75,500 tonnes of American coal on January 9 moored in the TIS port, and the eighth vessel with 82,500 tonnes of coal will moor in Pivdenny port on January 11.

Coal from the next Panamax ships will replenish the warehouses of DTEK Energy TPPs.

"These days we are accepting the seventh and eighth Panamax ships, which deliver 158,000 tonnes of fuel. Also, in January, we expect the arrival of the ninth ship with imported coal.
