Details
The actual consumption level will not be measured in July
The company explains that currently a significant power shortage in the power grid and increased consumption due to the heat do not allow for measurements.
It should be noted that for this purpose planned to cancel the restrictions for each region on a specific day during these two weeks according to a certain schedule.

The measurements are necessary to ensure a more even and accurate distribution of the available power in the system among the regions
Recall
From July 9 to July 24, all regions in turn had to cancel their electricity blackout schedules for a day to measure actual consumption and determine the best solutions for each region.
