Emergency Power Outages In Kyiv Will Last Whole Winter - Kyiv City Administration

The situation with electricity in Kyiv remains difficult, emergency power outages continue, and Kyiv residents will live in such realities all winter. This was stated by Petro Panteleyev, Deputy Chairman of the Kyiv City State Administration, the Kyiv TV channel reports.

"We remember the last shelling, it was difficult to restore, but the round-the-clock work of power engineers provided us with the situation we are in now. The relevant work continues," Panteleyev said.

He also added that weekends are specific days, the load decreases, consumption is lower than on weekdays.

"The situation is not easy, but we see it on weekdays, the restrictions continue, the disconnections continue, they are not planned, but to a greater extent emergency. We will live in such realities throughout the winter, we must understand this. We are trying as much as possible to ensure that residents feel comfortable, but everything depends not only on power engineers," stressed the deputy head of the Kyiv City State Administration.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, emergency power outages continue to be used in the capital and the Kyiv Region on Tuesday, December 27. Schedules made earlier are still not working.

Earlier it became known that the situation with light in Kyiv is improving. Yasno reported "as close to schedule" outages as possible.

Power engineers in Kyiv managed to come up with recovery schemes for 3 districts that suffered the most during the last week. It is about Obolon, Kurenivka and Borshchahivka. As a result of the shelling, some people remained without electricity for several days.

The districts are already recovering in the same rhythm as all of Kyiv. That is, without any difference in schedules between the shores of the capital. As the head of Yasno explained: "On December 25, the whole city "breathes" equally in terms of light. You can say that equality has come."
