As of the morning of August 28, consumers in four regions are without power due to new Russian attacks on civilian infrastructure.
According to Ukrinform, the National Electric Grid Company “Ukrenergo” reported this on Facebook.
“The enemy continues to attack Ukraine’s civilian energy infrastructure. As a result of Russian strikes, as of this morning there are new power outages in the Odesa, Mykolaiv, Kharkiv, and Kyiv regions. Where safety conditions currently permit, emergency repair work is already underway,” the statement reads.
As of 9:30 a.m. on Friday, electricity consumption was 4.4% lower than the previous day. The reason for the downward trend in consumption is clear weather in most regions (except for the southeastern ones), which facilitates the efficient operation of residential solar power systems.
