- As a result of enemy shelling of energy infrastructure, consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Chernihiv, and Zaporizhzhia regions have lost power. Emergency restoration work continues in all areas where the security situation allows.
- In Kyiv and Kyiv region, a significant electricity deficit persists. The situation remains difficult, and emergency outages are being enforced. A return to the scheduled, predictable hourly outage plans will occur after the power system stabilizes.
- Across the country, hourly outage schedules are in effect for all consumers, along with capacity restrictions for industry and businesses. In several regions, additional emergency outages are applied. The main reason for forced outages is the aftermath of night-time attacks on Ukrainian power plants and transmission and distribution substations.
- The most challenging situation remains in frontline and border regions, where restoring electricity is complicated by ongoing combat operations.
- Due to adverse weather, more than 700 settlements remain without electricity in Vinnytsia, Odesa, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi, Dnipropetrovsk, Kirovohrad, Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Ternopil, Chernihiv, and Cherkasy regions. Power utility repair crews are working around the clock.
- In response to the large-scale attacks by the Russian Federation, Ukraine’s energy sector is operating under an emergency regime to ensure maximum coordination of all services.
- The First Deputy Minister thanked consumers for their patience and urged them to use electricity as efficiently as possible, while also expressing gratitude to energy workers, heat providers, and rescuers for their round-the-clock efforts.
More details on the power system situation are available in the briefing by First Deputy Minister of Energy of Ukraine Artem Nekrasov.
