"As a result of hostilities and shelling of energy facilities, some consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Sumy, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Kherson regions remain temporarily without power supply," the statement reads.
Restoration work is ongoing wherever the security situation allows. Energy workers are working to restore power to Ukrainian homes as quickly as possible.
"No restrictions are forecast for today. Active energy consumption today should be shifted to daytime hours - from 10:00 to 16:00," the Ministry of Energy indicated.
According to Ukrenergo, electricity consumption has increased. Today, August 3, as of 09:30, it was 4.4% higher than at the same time on the previous working day – Friday, July 31. The reason is the onset of hot weather across the entire territory of Ukraine, which leads to widespread use of air conditioners.
Yesterday, August 2, the daily peak consumption was recorded in the evening. It was 3.2% higher than the peak of the previous Sunday – July 26.
