Enemy attacks have left parts of 7 regions without power; no rolling blackouts are scheduled for today, the Ministry of Energy reported on Monday, according to UNN.
As a result of shelling of energy infrastructure facilities, some consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, Kherson, Chernihiv, and Kharkiv regions remain temporarily without electricity supply,
Energy workers are operating in an intensified mode to restore power to all subscribers as quickly as possible. Restoration work continues around the clock.
"Due to bad weather, more than 700 settlements in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhia, Kirovohrad, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Ternopil, Kharkiv, Kherson, Khmelnytskyi, Cherkasy, Chernivtsi, Chernihiv, and Kyiv regions remain without electricity supply," the report says.
Repair crews are working on restoration.
"No restrictions are forecasted for today," the Ministry of Energy reported.
According to Ukrenergo, electricity consumption has decreased amid sunny weather across the entire territory of Ukraine. It is also noted that the level of electricity consumption is affected by a significant number of settlements de-energized due to the bad weather.
Consumers, however, are asked to use electricity sparingly during evening hours—from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM—whenever possible. This helps reduce the load on the system.
