Ukrenergo instructs that power supply restrictions be imposed across all regions

The relevant statement was made by the company’s press service on Facebook, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“At 07:00 a.m., Ukrenergo’s Operations Control Center instructed distribution network operators (regional power distribution companies) to impose restrictions on power supply services for industrial consumers across all regions of Ukraine,” the report states.

At the same time, additional restrictions will be applied to industrial consumers in central Ukraine (the city of Kyiv, Kyiv region, Chernihiv region, Cherkasy region, Zhytomyr region).

“Forced restrictions will also affect household consumers in central Ukraine (the city of Kyiv, Kyiv region, Chernihiv region, Cherkasy region, Zhytomyr region) and northern Ukraine (Sumy region, Kharkiv region, Poltava region), whose power grids have suffered the most this week,” Ukrenergo noted.

According to the company, regional power distribution companies should have developed and released blackout schedules for now.

A reminder that, on the night of October 27, 2022, Russian invaders again struck Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. For this reason, Ukrenergo National Power Company had to introduce tougher power supply restrictions in the city of Kyiv and four regions.
