Evening Outage Schedules to be Implemented in Ukraine Due to Heat and Shelling

Evening Outage Schedules to be Implemented in Ukraine Due to Heat and Shelling

01.07.2026 13:56

Today, July 1, due to a difficult situation in the power system and a high level of consumption caused by the heat, consumption restriction measures will be applied in all regions of Ukraine.

From 17:00 to 22:00, power limitation schedules for industry and hourly outages for all categories of consumers (up to 1 queue) will be forcedly implemented.

Schedules of potential outages for specific addresses can be found on the official pages of the oblenergos (regional power distribution companies) in your region. Citizens are kindly requested to shift the use of powerful electrical appliances to the daytime period — from 10:00 to 16:00.

At the same time, industrial consumers and businesses are reminded of the opportunity to utilize direct imports amounting to over 60% of their own consumption. This will guarantee protection against hourly outages and significantly assist the power system.

The current state of the power grid is further complicated by ongoing attacks on civilian infrastructure and severe weather conditions:

  • Consequences of Shelling: As of this morning, hostile strikes have resulted in new blackouts in the Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, and Kirovohrad regions.

  • Consequences of Severe Weather: Due to difficult weather conditions, more than 80 settlements in three regions — Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Zhytomyr — remain without power this morning.

In all affected areas, emergency repair crews and power engineers are already conducting restoration works wherever safety conditions permit. Consumers are urged to closely monitor updates on the websites and official social media pages of their distribution system operators (oblenergos), as the situation in the power system may change.
