Heat is affecting the increase in energy consumption throughout Ukraine
According to the press service of NPC Ukrenergo, electricity consumption today, Friday, July 25, is showing a growing trend. As of 9:30 a.m., its level was 6.9% higher than on the morning of the previous day, Thursday.
The reason is the heat throughout Ukraine, Ukrenergo explains. In addition, cloudy weather with rain in parts of the western and northern regions causes low efficiency of household power plants (PPS) and a corresponding increase in energy consumption from the general network.
