No restrictions are predicted for today. It is recommended to check official resources of distribution system operators for any changes in power supply.
It is recommended to shift active energy consumption today to the daytime — from 10:00 to 16:00. During the evening hours, from 18:00 to 22:00, consumers are advised to use electricity sparingly if possible. This will help reduce the load on the power system.
