Details: “We have a full range of essential power electrical equipment and a reserve stock of emergency transformers. This year, we are likely more prepared than ever for all possible winter scenarios and ready to respond to them effectively,” Brekht noted.
Background:
- Ukraine can endure the winter without blackouts at temperatures of zero degrees Celsius and above.
- Ukrenergo, Ukraine’s electricity transmission system operator, regards the scenario of a catastrophe caused by a lack of electricity in winter as pessimistic, but winter will not be easy.
- Generation deficits and blackouts are inevitable, and in the best-case scenario, there will be no electricity for up to 5 hours a day.
