On the territory of Ukraine during the weekend, January 14-15, the situation with the supply of electricity should improve against the background of some warming, which will reduce the volume of outages. Higher air temperature will help reduce consumption, Volodymyr Kudrytsky, Chairman of the Board of NPC Ukrenergo, said on the air of the telethon.

“At the weekend, we are expected to get warmer, and it will again be easier for us to “pack” consumption into the generation volume that we have,” he said..

In addition, according to Kudritsky, power engineers are now working to increase generation and accelerate the restoration of energy facilities in order to reduce consumption restrictions..

“We are now working to “squeeze out” all the generating capacities that it potentially has from the energy system, speed up those repairs that can be accelerated, and make sure that we have more and more existing generation,” said the head.

At the same time, he noted the importance of further saving electricity by Ukrainians.. This is especially true during cold weather, when consumption increases significantly, and it is not possible to cover it with existing capacities..

Recall that last weekend, DTEK announced the possibility of applying electricity consumption limits not only for the day, but also for the night due to the worsening weather conditions that have been observed in recent days.
