"No restrictions are forecast for today. Active energy consumption today should be shifted to daytime - from 10:00 to 16:00," the Ministry of Energy noted.
According to Ukrenergo, electricity consumption has increased. Today, July 31, as of 09:30, it was 2.6% higher than at the same time the previous day – on Thursday. The reason for the changes is the rise in air temperature in all regions of Ukraine, which causes massive use of air conditioners.
Yesterday, July 30, the daily maximum consumption was recorded in the evening. It was at the same level as the maximum of the previous day – on Wednesday, July 29.
