In the Sumy region there was an accident in the energy network, which led to the introduction of the maximum number of blackout schedules.
This was announced by the head of the Sumy city military administration, Alexey Drozdenko, in his Telegram, URA-Inform reports.
Drozdenko said that as a result of a systemic accident in the energy network of Ukraine, the Sumy region was forced to use all possible shutdown lines, including special emergency shutdown schedules. This means that the region is implementing the strictest measures to reduce the load on the energy grid.
«We are facing a serious systemic failure in the Ukrainian energy network. In the Sumy region, the maximum number of shutdown queues has been introduced, including special emergency shutdown schedules,» — Drozdenko noted.
Despite the current situation, power engineers are working to eliminate the problem and are doing everything possible to quickly restore normal energy supply. Alexey Drozdenko expressed hope that the situation will improve in the near future.
« We hope the situation improves» — he added.
It is worth noting that this is not the first time that accidents have occurred in the region’s energy network. On July 10, an accident occurred at one of the substations in Sumy, which led to an emergency power outage. This incident added an additional burden to the region's energy system.
