Maxim Timchenko
Maxim Timchenko is Chief Executive of DTEK Group, having led the company since its foundation in 2005. Under his leadership, DTEK has grown to become Ukraine’s largest private energy group, with a presence in eight European countries.
Timchenko has played a critical role in preserving power supplies to millions of Ukrainians in the face of russian attacks after 2014. Since full-scale war began in 2022, Timchenko has directed the rebuilding of destroyed energy infrastructure and fast-tracked new, more resilient energy assets in pursuit of greater energy security. DTEK has spent over €1.9 billion on repairs and investments to become the country’s biggest wartime investor. New energy assets include the construction of Ukraine’s largest windfarm and Eastern Europe’s biggest battery storage project.
