Why Power Outage Schedules Can Change During the Day: Ministry of Energy Explanation

The Ministry of Energy clarified how decisions about electricity restrictions are made. Outage schedules vary depending on the energy system's condition, which can shift hourly.

Electricity outage timing is influenced by factors such as shelling damage, accidents, power shortages, and spikes in consumption—especially during peak hours or extreme weather conditions.

Decision-Making Process for Electricity Restrictions

According to the Ministry of Energy, massive shelling can reduce energy generation or disrupt the transmission network, necessitating consumption limits.

The orders to enforce various types of restrictions may come from NPC Ukrenergo or distribution system operators.

Factors Affecting Restriction Levels

The Ministry of Energy states: "After massive shelling, the energy system lacks generation and/or the ability to transmit electricity due to network damage. Therefore, there is a need to limit consumption."

These considerations make outage schedules flexible rather than fixed, adjusting in real time to the system’s condition.

Author’s summary: Power outage schedules change dynamically based on real-time energy system conditions, damage, and demand spikes to ensure balanced electricity distribution.
