“The available volume of electricity produced is still insufficient to cover consumption in full … Consumption limits have been brought to all regions. Restrictions will apply, with the exception of Kyiv and Odessa, only for the period from 16.00 to 20.00. For the rest of the day, consumption restrictions are not planned to be applied “, the company said.
