Due to the significant damage caused by the latest Russian attack on Ukrainian power plants, Ukrenergo urged Ukrainians to reduce evening electricity consumption from 19:00 to 22:00 to maintain a balance between electricity production and consumption.

Against the backdrop of the latest Russian attack on energy infrastructure , Ukrenergo has called on Ukrainians to reduce evening electricity consumption. UNN reports with reference to the company's statement on its Telegram channel.

Details 

They noted that in the morning the occupiers caused significant damage to Ukrainian power plants. This is the third massive attack on Ukrainian power generation this year. 

The company noted that during the two previous ones, thermal and hydroelectric power plants were also affected. Their main role is the ability to quickly increase electricity production in the morning and evening, when consumption is growing rapidly.

The power system can operate safely only if it maintains a balance: electricity consumption = electricity production. Today, there is much less electricity on the production scale than there was yesterday, before the attack. And in order to keep the balance in our energy scales, we need to unload the consumption scales

- Ukrenergo explained. 

Thus, there is now a "particularly great need" to reduce consumption in the evening hours of maximum demand from 19:00 to 22:00. At this time, the company urged not to turn on powerful electrical appliances or to use them in turn. Such restrictions will help the power system to get through this difficult period safely.

Recall

Ukrenergo said that on April 11 , the Russians launched a new massive attack on energy infrastructure facilities.

Enemy missiles and drones damaged Ukrenergo substations and generation facilities in Odesa, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Lviv, and Kyiv regions
