According to Ukrenergo, today, January 14, electricity consumption as of 9:30 a.m. was 1.9% lower than at the same time the previous day, Monday, January 13. The reason for the decline is sunny weather in most regions and more efficient operation of household solar power plants.
Yesterday, January 13, the daily maximum consumption was recorded in the morning. It was 7.3% higher than the maximum of the previous business day - on Friday, January 10. Ukrenergo explained this by a significant drop in temperature in all regions of Ukraine and the establishment of frosty weather in the western regions.
