Quote from Ukrainian Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko: "From 1 December, the maximum capacity for importing electricity from the EU will be increased from the current 1.7 to 2.1 GW. This will increase the stability of the Ukrainian energy system."

Details: Ukraine will also be able to receive an additional 250 MW of guaranteed capacity from the EU in emergency mode.

Background: Winter power shortages and outages are inevitable, and in the best-case scenario, there will be no electricity for up to 5 hours a day.
