On Wednesday, November 20, power companies will use blackout schedules from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
This was reported by the press service of NEC “Ukrenergo”.
It is noted that one turn will be turned off (4 hours without light for the turn per day).
Energy experts reminded that the reason for the introduction of restrictions is damage to energy facilities as a result of a massive missile and drone attack on November 17
“Energy engineers are doing everything possible to restore damaged equipment as soon as possible. Please use electricity sparingly when it appears on schedule,” the power company added.
At the same time, on Wednesday, the restrictions will be lighter than on Tuesday, when up to 2 queues were turned off at the same time in separate hours.
Reference. Consumers of each region that do not belong to the list of critical infrastructure objects are divided into 6 queues (groups). Applying limits to three queues means that half of consumers in each region are on hourly outage schedules. Four turns – limit to 70% of consumers in each region.
When oblenergo applies one round of blackout schedules, it means 4 hours of restrictions per day, two rounds – 8 hours of restrictions, three rounds – 12 hours of restrictions, four rounds – more than 12 hours of restrictions.
How to distribute this load during the day, what will be the length of the queue – responsibility of oblenergo.
