Emergency shutdowns are applied throughout the territory of Ukraine, as the power systemʼs power shortage is increasing.

This is reported by "Ukrenergo".

"The reason for the increase in the power deficit was the emergency shutdown of units at several power plants. At the same time, consumption continues to grow due to worsening weather conditions. Currently, the capacity deficit is 27%," the company reported.

After eliminating the causes of emergency shutdowns, the units will return to work, which will reduce the deficit in the power system and reduce the volume of consumer restrictions.
