Naftogaz increases electricity imports from Europe to stabilize Ukraine's energy system

This week, the Naftogaz Group has increased electricity imports from Europe to stabilize the energy system following Russian strikes.

According to Ukrinform, CEO of NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine Sergii Koretskyi announced this on Facebook.

"The volumes of imported electricity now cover over 50% of the needs of all group enterprises, as provided for by the government resolution. The corresponding amount of electricity has been released for household consumers," Koretskyi said.

He added that Naftogaz was coordinating its actions with the government to stabilize the energy system as quickly as possible after Russian attacks.
