In the Odessa and Khmelnytsky regions, in case of increasing consumption, power outages may be applied, introduced after the massive attack by the Russian Federation on the energy system on March 22, reported by Ukrenergo.
According to their announcement in a Telegram channel on Sunday, network restrictions caused by damage to energy infrastructure facilities are still in effect in Kharkiv. According to the Ministry of Energy, hourly restrictions have been introduced for 200 thousand subscribers.
At the same time, distribution system operators working in these three regions, in their social media and on websites, urge consumers to use electricity as economically and rationally as possible to help restore damaged facilities.
Overall, as Ukrenergo notes, the morning rocket attack did not significantly affect the operation of the energy system, but UAVs attacked energy facilities in the Dnipropetrovsk region. As a result, part of the equipment at one of the substations and a high-voltage power line were damaged. At the same time, disruptions in heat supply and violations of the technological process were recorded at certain industrial enterprises in Kryvyi Rih. However, Ukrenergo and regional power distribution companies have restored power supply to industry and heat supply to residential consumers, the company emphasizes.
Also, during the air raid alert, the air line providing power to the backup power supply scheme of the Zaporizhzhia NPP was disconnected, but Ukrenergo experts have already restored its operation.
According to the Ministry of Energy, damage to power lines in the Kyiv region due to the fall of drone debris has affected 1,700 consumers in two settlements.
Also, the enemy attempted to hit a critical energy infrastructure facility in the Lviv region - equipment caught fire, the facility was de-energized, but there were no casualties. As the Ministry of Energy notes, the consequences are being clarified.
According to their data, electricity imports of 14,900 MWh are forecasted for the current day (a new record for March), with no exports expected (there was also no export on Friday, and on Saturday it was minimal, about 1,000 MWh).
Emergency restoration work continues 24/7 in all affected regions.
