The message states that the time and volume of the restrictions may change, so it is important to monitor information on the official pages of the power supply companies in your region.

We remind you that today 'Ukrenergo' began emergency power outages due to increased electricity consumption as a result of overcast weather.

The Economist reported on new Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, using cheap Shahed drones and missiles to strike the country's power grids with the aim of destroying key elements of the system before winter begins.

As a result of the latest Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy structure, prices for generators and charging stations have surged. This October, prices increased by 60% compared to the previous year. The State Tax Service urged shops to stop raising prices for backup power devices.

In the event of Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, 'Ukrenergo' initiates electricity consumption restrictions and calls on citizens to follow updates on schedules and information on official resources. Increased prices for electrical appliances are already felt in the market, but the authorities are responding by calling on retail stores.
