The deficit persists. Prime Minister Shmyhal reported that Ukraine is importing electricity from Europe

There continues to be a significant deficit in Ukraine’s energy system.

Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal reported this in his Telegram channel.

According to him, UkrEnergo had to seek emergency assistance from Europe for the fourth consecutive day yesterday.

“The extensive damage inflicted by Russia recently cannot be repaired in a matter of weeks or even months. We are working on alternatives: installing mini thermal power plants in various cities and strengthening the energy system through its decentralization,” the minister informed.

Shmyhal urged Ukrainians to use electricity sparingly.

Recall that earlier it was reported that power outages may occur in Kyiv in case of increased consumption and a shortage of generation.
