New power outage schedules to be introduced in Kyiv and the region from October 25
On October 25, new schedules of stabilization power outages will be introduced in Kyiv and the region. This was a consequence of the problematic situation in the power system caused by Russian shelling. DTEK provided information about this.
Users in the capital are divided into six queues, which are, in turn, divided into two subgroups. The outages are carried out in accordance with Ukrenergo’s instructions.
In Kyiv, electricity will be turned off from 08:00 to 23:00, but three subgroups—2.1, 5.1, and 5.2—will receive electricity throughout the day. In the Kyiv region, outages will also occur at the same time, and queue 2.1 will remain with electricity for the whole day.
To find out the exact time of a possible power outage in your area, visit the DTEK or Yasno website and enter your address. There are also chatbots in Viber and Telegram that provide up-to-date schedules.
When restrictions apply to three lines, outages affect about half of consumers; if they apply to more lines, then most of the population.
DTEK reminds users that after power is restored, all large appliances should not be turned on at the same time, as this may cause network failures. It is recommended to unplug appliances in advance to reduce the risk.
Company representatives note: “When the light goes out, turn on appliances from the sockets. This is not easy, but necessary. We live in difficult times and must adapt.”
