After a massive attack by Russia: in which regions of Ukraine have emergency shutdown schedules been applied
Kyiv • UNN
Emergency blackout schedules will be applied in several regions of Ukraine, including Sumy, Poltava, Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kirovohrad and Kharkiv, due to the lack of sufficient generating capacity caused by a massive Russian attack on Ukrainian power plants.
Emergency shutdown schedules will be applied in a number of regions of Ukraine, UNN reports with reference to Ukrenergo.
Ukrenergo's dispatch center is forced to apply emergency outage schedules for the period of evening peak consumption in Sumy, Poltava and Donetsk regions. Emergency blackouts have already been applied in Dnipropetrovska, Zaporizka, Kirovohradska oblasts
According to Ukrenergo, the main reason is the lack of sufficient generating capacity in the system to cover consumption in certain regions of the country, as a result of a massive Russian attack on Ukrainian power plants overnight.
In addition, power supply restrictions remain in place in Kharkiv and Kryvyi Rih.
Consumers in other regions were urged to consume electricity sparingly.
