“Ukrenergo to limit electricity supply for business: schedule published
12 February 2025 05:19
Today, February 12, Ukraine will introduce temporary power supply restrictions for industrial enterprises and businesses. This was reported by "Komersant Ukrainian" with reference to Ukrenergo.
Schedule of electricity restrictions:
- Morning period: 07:00 – 11:00
- Evening period: 15:00 – 21:00
No power outages are currently expected for household consumers.
Why are restrictions being introduced?
As a result of Russia’s targeted attacks on the energy infrastructure, the facilities that ensure the stable operation of the power system were damaged. Disconnecting business and industry will help balance the load and avoid emergencies.
Powerengineers are working to repair the damaged equipment and are doing everything possible to stabilize the power system.

The situation may change
The time and scope of restrictions may be adjusted throughout the day. We recommend that you follow the updates on the official resources of your regional power distribution company and its social media.
Ukrainians are also asked to consume electricity sparingly. In particular, do not turn on several powerful electrical appliances at the same time.
To avoid the problem of electricity shortages, you need to follow simple recommendations:
- Do not turn on several powerful electrical appliances at the same time in the morning (07:00-10:00) and evening (17:00-22:00) peak hours. This will reduce the load on the system and help avoid outages.
- Turn off unnecessary lighting at home and at work. This will reduce energy consumption and save money.
- Disconnect appliances that you are not using from the mains. Even in standby mode, appliances continue to consume electricity.
- Boil only the amount of water you need in an electric kettle. It is faster, more economical, and healthier.
- Use powerful appliances during the lowest load hours (from 23:00 to 07:00).
- Do not leave devices on charge longer than necessary. This will extend battery life and reduce energy consumption.
- Install energy-saving LED lamps. They consume significantly less electricity than conventional incandescent bulbs.
