Ukrenergo Announces Nationwide Rolling Outages for Dec. 9

The grid operator cites damage from repeated Russian missile‑drone strikes on energy infrastructure as the reason for the restrictions.

Overview

  • Households will follow hourly outage schedules of two to four shifts running from 00:00 to 23:59.
  • Industrial consumers will be placed on concurrent power‑limitation schedules during the same hours.
  • Consumption restrictions already in effect today range from 2.5 to four shifts nationwide.
  • Ukrenergo links the measures to prior large‑scale attacks on power facilities and reports eight mass air assaults on the energy system this year.
  • UN monitors have warned of severe winter risks for civilians, including prolonged disruptions to heat, electricity and water that would hit vulnerable groups hardest.
