Ukrainians are urged to conserve electricity
Despite the absence of scheduled power outages, the Ministry of Energy recommends that Ukrainians use electricity sparingly.
The greatest strain on the power grid traditionally occurs during:
- the morning hours;
- the evening period of peak consumption.
Experts advise against turning on multiple energy-intensive appliances at the same time during these periods to reduce the load on the grid.
