Ukrenergo introduces electricity supply restrictions in Kyiv city and four regions

Due to a rapid increase in the level of electricity consumption in the central regions and Kyiv, NEC Ukrenergo is introducing restrictions in this part of Ukraine.

According to Ukrinform, the company press service issued a relevant statement on its Facebook page.

"Due to a sharp increase in the level of electricity consumption, the Ukrenergo dispatch center is forced to introduce a temporary controlled restriction of electricity consumption in Kyiv and the Kyiv, Chernihiv, Cherkasy and Zhytomyr regions. This will help reduce the load on the power grid and give energy companies time to repair equipment damaged by terrorist attacks," the statement reads.

Since October 10, Russian forces have been attacking Ukraine’s civilian energy infrastructure with missiles and kamikaze drones. As a result, more than 45 energy facilities were damaged across the country.
