Consumption

As indicated, today, November 7, as of 9:30 a.m., the level of consumption was 4.1% lower than on Wednesday, November 6. The reason for this is sunny weather in most regions of Ukraine, except for the north-eastern regions, and high efficiency of domestic solar power plants.

"During the hours of maximum consumption in the morning and evening, the power system remains under capacity. Please do not turn on several powerful electrical appliances at the same time from 7:00 to 11:00 in the morning and from 16:00 to 21:00 in the evening," Ukrenergo noted.
