On December 22, Ukraine celebrates Energy Workers Day — the holiday of those who generate and deliver electricity and heat to every home. In recent years energy workers have been working in extremely difficult conditions, restoring the grid after attacks, so words of gratitude matter especially. Here you will find short Energy Workers Day wishes, thanks from citizens, messages for colleagues, managers and family, official greetings, light-hearted wishes and poems.

Another holiday for those who rebuild the country is Builders Day, and to thank rescuers, see our Rescuers Day wishes.
