“Ukrenergo named the critical temperature in winter, during which there will be even greater problems with energy supplyA prolonged period of severe frosts, about a week with temperatures of -10 degrees and below, may necessitate the introduction of
emergency and hourly power outages throughout the country. According to Vitaliy Zaichenko, Chairman of the Board of Ukrenergo, in
such a case it will be impossible to meet consumption through exports or domestic sources.

Details
We predicted the operating mode of our energy system at sub-zero temperatures. For us, forecasts lasting about a week are critical… a period with temperatures of -10 degrees and below. In this case, consumption will increase very significantly. At the same time, it will not be possible to provide for the consumption of our energy system either through exports or through internal sources, and schedules of both emergency shutdowns and hourly shutdowns will be applied.
At the same time, he emphasized that no significant deterioration of the situation compared to the current one is expected, because with increasing consumption, the load on those sections of the network that are already subject to hourly shutdown schedules also increases.
It is unlikely that there will be more than four queues, unless new attacks on the energy infrastructure occur.
RecallTomorrow, December 12, Ukrainians will again face blackout schedules.
