"We have new emergency outages due to the bad weather. As a result of a storm with heavy rain and winds of up to 25 m/s, 36 lines and 611 transformer substations were out of power on the morning of June 12. The storm front affected all regions of Kyiv Oblast," DTEK said on social media.
As noted, specialists are already eliminating the consequences of the bad weather. The task is to restore the operation of all higher voltage lines (10 kV) as quickly as possible and switch to customers' requests for lower voltage networks (0.4 kV) to return electricity to all homes. Strong winds and rain, as noted, complicate the work, which may provoke new accidents in the networks.
Meanwhile, local social media outlets report that a heavy downpour has also hit Kyiv.
