Favorable weather allows for active solar power generation, but in some regions, such as Kharkiv, hourly restrictions on electricity supply to industry may be imposed due to grid problems caused by Russian missile attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.

Hourly electricity curtailment schedules may be introduced exclusively for industry. Favorable weather is conducive to energy production from solar power plants. This was stated by Deputy Energy Minister of Ukraine Mykola Kolisnyk during a telethon, UNN reports.
