Europe has also been providing aid very heavily of the non-military variety given they have more spare civilian capacity than military. This includes power generation and transmission to Ukraine, parts, etc.

The recent Perun video also talked about how ~50% of power generation is still online in Ukraine, due to it coming from nuclear plants. Still not enough to fully power the country, particularly if transmission is not kept online, but that is a better picture than I previously thought it was.
