The existing electricity tariff will be valid until the end of the month. The new tariffs are calculated taking into account the solvency of the population and preparations for the heating season.

Deputy Energy Minister Mykola Kolisnyk urges businesses to install backup generation and solar panels for energy self-sufficiency, which is economically viable and will help prepare for the next heating season.

Ukraine has developed a clear plan to get through the next heating season without outages, following the same approach as last year by increasing generating capacity and creating decentralized medium and small generation facilities across the country.

Due to the electricity shortage caused by the Russian attacks, restrictions may be imposed on industrial and residential consumers in all regions from 18:00 to midnight today.

The Ministry of Energy of Ukraine has approved a Roadmap for the development of smart grids to introduce automation and digital solutions at all levels of the power system to make it more balanced, secure and resilient to military risks.

On May 20, from 18:00 to 24:00, hourly power cuts will be introduced for industrial and residential consumers across Ukraine, except for critical infrastructure facilities, due to damage caused by shelling and the need to cover the electricity shortage through imports.

A team of power engineers in Donetsk Oblast came under fire from an enemy Lancet drone while carrying out repairs, but there were no casualties.

Ukraine is covering its electricity needs through domestic generation, imports and emergency aid from Romania, Slovakia and Poland, and is providing emergency aid to Poland despite damage to infrastructure caused by shelling, calling for careful and responsible energy consumption to ensure stability in the power system.

At night and in the morning, Ukraine received emergency electricity supplies from Romania, Slovakia, and Poland due to Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.

There is a significant deficit in the Ukrainian energy system, which necessitates hourly blackouts from 19:00 to 24:00 and imports that reach the technically permitted maximum.

Ukraine has faced power outages due to electricity shortages, with restrictions on industry scheduled for today from 4 p. m., and has asked the EU for emergency assistance.

On May 16, scheduled hourly power outages will be introduced throughout Ukraine for residential and industrial consumers to ensure the safe operation of the power grid.

Ukraine has attracted emergency electricity supplies from Poland, Romania and Slovakia due to a shortage of capacity after Russian shelling. Restrictions on electricity consumption for industry will be applied throughout the day to avoid blackouts.

The government has amended the procedure to allow the reservation of employees at companies involved in the restoration of critical infrastructure damaged by Russian aggression.

Ukraine is working to restore and reconstruct the energy sector, develop decentralized generation and minimize risks before the start of the next heating season.

Due to significant damage to energy facilities and an increase in electricity consumption, restrictions are being imposed on industrial consumers in Ukraine starting at 4 p. m. today, while emergency electricity supplies are being delivered from the EU.

Due to significant damage to energy facilities and electricity shortages, Ukraine has received emergency electricity from Poland, Romania and Slovakia, and consumption restrictions for industrial consumers may be imposed in the evening.

The Minister of Energy of Ukraine warned of possible difficulties with electricity supply in winter and summer due to significant losses of generating capacity as a result of hostile shelling, urging consumers to save electricity and prepare for a difficult winter.

Ukraine is discussing a possible increase in electricity tariffs within a month due to the need for funds to prepare for the fall-winter period and repair energy facilities damaged by shelling.

Amid significant damage to the power grid caused by Russian attacks, Ukraine received emergency electricity supplies from Poland, Romania, and Slovakia, and Ukrainians were urged to reduce the use of energy-intensive appliances during peak hours.

The Ministry of Energy is discussing an increase in electricity tariffs for households due to the significant loss of more than 8 GW of generating capacity caused by Russian attacks on energy infrastructure since March.

Due to damage to energy infrastructure and shelling, Ukraine received emergency electricity supplies from Poland, Romania, and Slovakia, and more than 1,000 consumers in Kharkiv region were cut off from gas supply.

Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko discussed with Japanese officials the restoration of damaged energy systems and winterization, thanking Japan for its assistance and requesting additional equipment and cooperation to strengthen the protection of energy facilities.

To balance Ukraine's power system in times of shortage, Ukrenergo applies consumption restrictions for non-household consumers through power limitation schedules depending on the situation.

The Ministry of Energy is discussing the possibility of raising electricity tariffs to provide funds to prepare for the next heating season, as a significant shortfall is forecast due to Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.

Germany will allocate €45 million to Ukraine to finance the project "Improving the Efficiency of Electricity Transmission" and purchase equipment for energy-efficient modernization, automation and reconstruction of Ukrenergo substations to restore Ukraine's power system damaged by russian strikes.

Ukraine may have to raise electricity tariffs as it needs more than $1 billion to prepare for the fall and winter period.

Due to hostile shelling and damage to energy facilities, electricity supplies to industrial consumers were limited, and restrictions are still possible, and Ukraine received emergency aid from Poland, Romania, and Slovakia, which amounted to about 3% of daily electricity consumption.

Due to massive rocket and drone attacks on energy facilities by Russia, which caused a shortage of electricity, Ukrenergo is forced to limit power supply to industry and business from 18:00 to 23:00 in all regions of Ukraine to avoid emergency power outages for the population.

Up to 50,000 households were left without electricity due to the shelling, but were quickly reconnected, although evening power outages for industrial consumers are possible due to limited capacity.
