Russia’s latest attack made Ukraine’s energy system deteriorate to previous week’s level
The latest large-scale missile attack by Russian forces on the energy infrastructure of Ukraine has returned the energy system to the same level of destruction as a week before. The emergency power shutdowns continue to be implemented in Kyiv.
This is reported by Serhii Kovalenko, CEO of the power supply company Yasno, on Facebook.
"We still have emergency power shutdowns. Kyiv had about 62-67% capacity from a typical consumption level today. In fact, the last attack has returned us to the previous week’s levels. But I hope that we will be back to stabilisation schedules very soon," he posted.
Kovalenko has added that the company continues active work with apartment blocks’ joint owners associations and housing services agencies that are added to critical infrastructure.
"We have decisions on 474 residential buildings already; management companies are ready to turn it [power - ed.] off in case of emergency or stabilisation power shutdowns," he pointed out.
Kovalenko has also explained that it is important as the main goal amid significant restrictions to provide critical infrastructure with power, dividing the rest between the population equally.
Background:
Ukraine’s energy system is progressively being restored after the eighth missile attack; Odesa and Kyiv oblasts suffered the most in a missile attack on 5 December.
