On Thursday, January 9, Ukraine does not plan to introduce power outage schedules. This was reported by "Ukrenergo" in the "Kyiv Digital" app.
According to the Telegram channel of the company, as of 9:30 AM today, January 8, electricity consumption was at the same level as the previous day - Tuesday.
Additionally, "Ukrenergo" urged Ukrainians to limit the use of high-energy-consuming household appliances, particularly from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM, and from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM. These include electric stoves, washing machines, water heaters, and air conditioners.
"We remind you that the Ukrainian energy system is still recovering after thirteen massive missile and drone attacks by Russians throughout last year. Emergency restoration work at energy facilities is ongoing. Energy workers are doing everything possible to quickly return damaged and replace destroyed equipment by the enemy," the company stated.
