Meanwhile, yesterday, August 10, the daily peak consumption recorded in the evening was 7.7% lower than on Friday, August 7, owing to a temporary drop in temperatures late last week.
At the same time, enemy shelling continues to impact energy infrastructure. As of this morning, Russian attacks caused new power outages in Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Kharkiv, Sumy, and Chernihiv regions. Emergency restoration work is underway wherever security conditions permit.
In the Odesa region, repair operations are ongoing following a massive missile and drone attack over Friday night. Power has already been restored to nearly all consumers. However, due to equipment overload under high consumption levels, the local distribution system operator has been forced to apply grid restrictions. These will be lifted once emergency repairs are fully completed.
Power grid operators advise shifting heavy electricity use to daytime hours—between 10:00 and 16:00—when commercial solar power plants operate most efficiently. Power usage should be minimized during the evening peak from 19:00 to 22:00. Residents of the Odesa region are requested to practice energy conservation throughout the entire day.
