According to him, he held an operational headquarters on the heating season and heard reports from the city and regional authorities, Naftogaz, Kryvyi Rih CHP, and the State Energy Supervision Service on the reasons for the critical situation. As a result, we made a number of decisions.

"The city will have a headquarters for emergency response and heating. The head of the headquarters is my deputy Timur Tkachenko. Ukrenergo will not cut off electricity in the part of the city where there are problems with heating," the minister said.
