Ukrainian solar energy company Atmosfera was struck during a Russian missile attack on Kyiv last week, destroying some of the solar equipment at its central warehouse. The company says a substantial share of the inventory was saved and confirmed all employees were unharmed.

A warehouse belonging to Atmosfera, one of Ukraine’s leading solar energy companies, was hit by Russian missiles last week.

The strike on Atmosfera’s central warehouse occurred as part of a wider Russian missile attack on Kyiv late in the evening of June 25. There were no casualties at the warehouse, as no members of staff were on site at the time of the incident.

The company told pv magazine the resulting fire damaged a significant portion of the company’s photovoltaic equipment, with a full assessment of the damage still ongoing.

A substantial share of the inventory was successfully saved, the company added, after Atmosfera’s warehouse director arrived at the site within minutes of the attack and managed to move stock, forklifts and company vehicles before firefighters reached the warehouse to tackle the blaze.
