Generation capacity, as in previous weeks, is sufficient to fully meet the needs of electricity consumed throughout the country.

In Zhytomyr and Kyiv oblasts, power supply restrictions might be implemented due to network infrastructure repairs following Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

Apart from that, electricity supply was restored to about 3,500 consumers in Donetsk and about 2,000 consumers in Kharkiv oblasts during the past day.
