Details. The energy company emphasises that due to the beginning of the working week, energy consumption has increased compared to the previous day off. Therefore, electricity generation cannot fully cover the country's needs.

At the same time, Ukrenergo specialists managed to restore one of the 330 kV lines in the southeast of the country. 

"Electricity producers and oblast power distribution companies are constantly working on restoration of the damaged facilities affected by enemy attacks. However, after each subsequent russian attack on the energy infrastructure, the restoration becomes more difficult and takes longer," the NPC explains.
