As of today, 28 June, power import is forecasted to be 31 390 MW/h. Export is not provided for.

In addition to this, residential buildings and institutions in the central district in the city of Kyiv were powered down due to a technical failure.

In the country's southern regions, equipment at a high-voltage substation was turned off. Due to this, households were powered down in Odesa and Mykolaiv oblasts. A "green" generation facility also decreased its power output. The reason for it was a technical failure caused by the grass catching fire next to the equipment. All households were supplied with power within an hour.
