The capacity of Ukrainian power plants is insufficient due to the consequences of five Russian missile and drone attacks on the Ukrainian energy system since March 22, the company notes.
The Ukrenergo dispatch center has already brought consumption limits for each region to the oblenergo.
You can get information about the schedules of hourly power outages in a certain region of Ukraine in the consumer’s account, on the official websites of oblenergos, as well as on pages on social networks.
Ukrenergo claims that the volume of hourly power outages is distributed evenly between the regions of Ukraine.
Power supply to critical infrastructure facilities is not limited, Ukrenergo noted.
Emergency shutdowns in Kyiv
The extremely difficult situation in the energy system continues, so emergency shutdowns are in effect in Kyiv at the direction of Ukrenergo.
— Energy workers are doing everything possible to stabilize the situation as quickly as possible, — noted in DTEK.
Ukrainians are urged to consume electricity wisely so that they no longer have to use hourly blackouts.
