Power supply restrictions are in place for consumers; more than 55,000 customers are without power due to the weather

GENERATION, TRANSMISSION, CONSUMPTION

Over the past day, the needs of consumers were covered by domestic generation and commercial imports.

Throughout the day, emergency outages were applied and hourly outage schedules were in effect. The reason for this was the difficult situation in the power system following the recent russian attacks. No emergency assistance was provided to the Ukrainian power system. During the day, generation from renewable energy sources in the western region was limited.

Today, restrictions on household and industrial consumers are applied throughout the day throughout Ukraine.

CONSEQUENCES OF SHELLING

In Kharkiv region, a gas pipeline of a gas production company was damaged by shelling. Gas supply to consumers was not interrupted. The gas leak has been repaired.
