25 December 06:57
Today, December 25, blackout schedules will be applied in all regions of Ukraine. This was reported by Ukrenergo, "Komersant Ukrainian" informs
Both hourly blackout schedules and power limitation schedules (for industrial consumers) will be in effect.
“The reason for the introduction of restrictive measures is the consequences of Russian missile and drone attacks on power facilities… The situation in the power system may change,” the company added.
In which regions blackouts are possible
Restrictions will apply to most regions of Ukraine, but the specific hours and sequence of outages are determined by regional distribution system operators.
Ukrainians are advised to
- follow the official announcements of regional power distribution companies;
- check updated schedules for their region;
- consume electricity rationally, especially during peak hours.
Why there is no electricity
Despite the repair work, Ukraine’s power system continues to operate under a power shortage. The main factors are as follows:
- large-scale damage to energy facilities;
- reduced generation due to shelling;
- seasonal increase in electricity consumption in winter.
Ukrenergo emphasizes that schedules may change during the day, depending on the situation in the power system.
What consumers are advised
Power engineers urge citizens to
- if possible, postpone the use of powerful electrical appliances to nighttime hours;
- avoid turning on energy-intensive appliances at the same time;
- follow only official sources of information to avoid misinformation.
