Details: Emergency repair work has started in areas where security conditions permit.

Electricity consumption is declining. As of 09:30 on 13 February, it was 3.9% below Thursday's level at the same time, as most Ukrainian regions experience noticeable warming.

On 12 February, the daily peak electricity consumption occurred in the morning, 1.2% higher than on Wednesday 11 February. The increase was driven by the easing of power supply restrictions in certain regions.

Background: Ukraine's Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal has instructed all energy supply services to accelerate repairs ahead of a return of severe frosts next week.
