As a result of hostilities, ZNPP was left with one power supply line; there is no electricity shortage

Power generation and consumption

There is no deficit in the power system. Domestic generation is sufficient to cover the needs of consumers, and commercial imports and exports of electricity are planned.

There are 7 thermal power units in reserve to be used if necessary.

The situation is under control. The system is balanced. No blackout schedules are applied.

Consequences of shelling

As a result of hostilities yesterday, a 330 kV high-voltage power line in Zaporizhzhia region was de-energised. As a result, Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant was left with only one power supply line. Hostilities continue in the area.

The shelling damaged an overhead line in Chernihiv region, which cut off power to about 200 consumers in two settlements.

Emergencies

In Lviv region, an inspection revealed deliberate damage to an Ukrtransnafta oil pipeline – a branch pipe was welded to the pipe.
