Due to significant damage to the energy infrastructure in Ukraine, Ukrenergo is forced to apply emergency schedules of power outages in the evening in six regions of Ukraine. This was reported by UNN with reference to a statement by the National Energy Company Ukrenergo.
Details
It is noted that Ukrenergo's dispatch center is forced to apply temporary measures to limit consumption from 18:20 to 22:00:
- Dnipropetrovsk
- Donetsk
- Zaporizhzhya
- Kirovogradskaya
- Poltava
- Sumy regions.
The reason for the restrictions is the lack of sufficient generating capacity in the system to cover consumption in certain regions of the country. This is the result of recent massive russian attacks on Ukrainian power plants. Also, consumption in the country is growing in the evening due to the cold snap
Addendum
The company explained that the amount of restrictions is moderate. Regional power distribution companies will distribute the available electricity evenly among the consumer queues.
In addition, power supply restrictions remain in place in Kharkiv region and for industrial consumers in Kryvyi Rih.
Recall
During a nighttime drone attack in Kharkiv region , a drone damaged equipment at a power facility, and in Dnipropetrovs'k region, the enemy hit the energy infrastructure.
