Electricity outage schedules in Kyiv from 2026

According to Главком: Starting January 1, 2026, electricity outage schedules will be introduced in Kyiv. This decision, announced by the DTEK company, affects all regions of Ukraine, where hourly electricity outage schedules will also be implemented. In particular, power limitation schedules for industrial consumers will be introduced.

These measures are aimed at ensuring the stability of electricity supply under conditions of limited resources.

The introduction of electricity outage schedules is a response to challenges related to limited resources and the necessity to maintain the stability of the energy system. Such measures can help avoid more serious problems with electricity supply, especially in conditions of increasing electricity consumption.

It is important for consumers to be familiar with the new schedules to minimize the negative impact on everyday life and enterprise activities.
