“As of 11:00 am on January 7, due to a weekend and at the same time a festive day in the morning, consumption in Ukraine is lower than yesterday, even with a significant decrease in temperature. But during the day, due to the increased cooling, an increase in consumption levels is predicted.

Exceeding consumption limits leads to emergency restrictions. At night, restrictions as of today do not apply, Ukrenergo said.
Supplement
Over the past three months, Ukraine’s energy system has suffered significant damage as a result of massive enemy missile and unmanned attacks. Damage to generation facilities and backbone networks is complex and large-scale. Their restoration still requires significant resources and time, Ukrenergo stressed.
