On Monday, March 16, scheduled hourly power outages will be applied for household consumers across all regions of Ukraine from 17:00, while industrial consumers will face power capacity restrictions.

Ukrenergo reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"On March 16, from 17:00 to 22:00, hourly outage schedules and power limitation schedules (for industrial consumers) will be applied in all regions of Ukraine," the statement said.

The reason for introducing the restrictions is the consequences of Russian missile and drone attacks on the energy system.
