Power outage schedules in Ukraine July 16
From 16:00 to 24:00 oblenergos will use four stages blackouts at the same time. During the remaining hours there will be three queues, reported in Ukrenergo.
At the same time, emergency shutdowns in the Kharkov region have already been cancelled. The region has returned to hourly power outage schedules.
Now watching
Recall that previously Ukrenergo planned to lift restrictions for each region on one day during July 9-24 in order to measure the actual level of consumption.
However, due to a significant power shortage in the energy system and increased consumption due to the heat, blackout schedules in Ukraine will remain in effect without exception.
Planned blackouts – how long will they last
According to the head of the board of NEC Ukrenergo Vladimir Kudrytsky, planned power outages can be carried out throughout the summer, autumn and all of next winter.
– “As we announced, hourly shutdown schedules will be applied for industry and the population due to the fact that the energy system does not have enough power to cover the evening peak of consumption,” Kudritsky said.
Where to see scheduled power outages
Ukrenergo has already carried out work in its branches to designate consumption limits for each region.
Get information about hourly power outage schedules in a specific region of Ukraine can be found in the consumer account, on the official websites of regional power companies, and on pages in social networks.
Ukrenergo claims that the volume of hourly power outages is distributed evenly between the regions of Ukraine.
Recall that after the Russian army resumed targeted attacks on Ukrainian energy facilities in the spring of 2024, the most destruction was caused by shelling on March 22 and 29, April 11 and 27, May 8, and June 1, 20, and 22.
As a result, the country lost 9 GW of production capacity from Ukrainian power plants.
This capacity is equal to the consumption in the summer in peak hours in European countries such as the Netherlands, Finland or Slovakia and the Baltics at the same time.
