Power outage schedule for next week?
Power outage schedule for next week?

As of November 1, there are no grounds for instituting power outage schedules. This was reported by "Ukrenergo," commenting on the information about the possibility of power outages next week.

According to the company's press service, although the decrease in temperature will lead to increased energy consumption, the issue of the need for outages can only be resolved by "Ukrenergo," which has not yet provided forecasts regarding the application of restrictions.

"Ukrenergo" stated that it is doing everything possible, together with the Ministry of Energy, regional military administrations, and energy companies, to avoid outages.

Forecasts regarding outages contradict reality

Earlier, a member of the supervisory board of "Centrenergo" Volodymyr Velychko stated that power outages would occur again in Ukraine next week. He explained that the forecasted temperature drop would require serious measures to balance the energy system.

However, "Centrenergo" stated that the information about the possibility of outages next week does not correspond to reality.

The government, regional military administrations, and local authorities are working in sync to prepare infrastructure, accumulate resources, and create decentralized generation to ensure light and warmth in all homes during winter.

The government believes that by the end of October and in November, there will be no problems with energy supply. It is also mentioned that this year it was possible to avoid outages similar to those of last year.

Currently, all nine power units operating in the Ukraine-controlled territories are ready for winter operation, reported the company "Energoatom."

It should be noted that the European Commission, together with the G7 countries and other partners, have collected over $4 billion for the restoration of Ukraine's energy infrastructure, including increasing the maximum amount of electricity that can be supplied to the country.
