As a result of new Russian attacks on energy infrastructure, as of the morning of November 12, some consumers in nine regions of Ukraine were left without electricity. In Poltava region, four energy workers were injured during the shelling.
This was announced by First Deputy Minister of Energy of Ukraine Artem Nekrasov during a briefing on the operational situation in the energy system.
According to the Ministry of Energy, partial blackouts were recorded in Vinnytsia, Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhia, Odesa, Rivne, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Cherkasy regions.
Separately, the ministry reported four injured employees of the energy sector in Poltava region. All of them are receiving the necessary medical care.
Energy workers are restoring damaged equipment around the clock. Repair crews are working in an intensified mode in all affected regions where the security situation allows. At the same time, restoration works are complicated by constant air raid alerts.
According to Ukrenergo, on November 12, hourly outage schedules of one to three stages continue to operate in some regions. Power limitation schedules are also applied for industrial enterprises.
Due to new shelling and equipment damage, the electricity supply situation may change during the day. Consumers are advised to check current schedules on the official resources of their distribution system operators, as the time and duration of outages depend on the state of local power grids.
