However, the Ministry of Energy noted that active energy consumption today should be shifted to daytime hours — from 11:00 to 15:00.
According to Ukrenergo, electricity consumption is showing a downward trend. Today, July 13, as of 09:30, it was 2.4% lower than at the same time on the previous working day — Friday, July 10. The reason for the changes is a decrease in air temperature in most regions of Ukraine. Yesterday, July 12, the daily peak consumption was recorded in the evening. It was 3.1% higher than the peak of the previous Sunday — July 5.
