In one of the areas, the lights were almost never turned off

Head of the State Energy Inspectorate, Ruslan Slobodian, spoke about violations in the system of power outages in Ukraine. During the inspections, it was found that some areas were avoiding scheduled shutdowns.

In particular, in the Dnipropetrovsk region, objects that did not fall under this category were included in the list of critical infrastructure.

Slobodian noted that the list of critical infrastructure needs to be revised according to stricter criteria. It was also revealed that in the Zhytomyr region, some districts did not follow the orders of Ukrenergo dispatchers, which led to an unfair distribution of electricity between regions.

"This is unacceptable, as it creates unequal conditions for other regions," Slobodian said on the air of the "We are Ukraine" TV channel. He emphasized that the energy system of Ukraine is not yet fully automated, which allows the human factor to influence its work. However, control by the state remains an important element in ensuring justice.

The inspection in the Zhytomyr region was initiated on the basis of appeals from citizens and data from Ukrenergo, which indicated possible violations. According to Slobodyan, the region confirmed the acceptance of commands to apply shutdown schedules, but in reality not all queues were fulfilled, which led to a significant or complete preservation of the load on the network.

At the same time, energy expert Volodymyr Omelchenko predicts a decrease in the duration of power outages from mid-August, and in the fall, provided there are no new attacks on energy facilities, there may be no outages at all.

Lana Zerkal, a member of the coordination committee of the Ukraine Facility Platform, reported that the Russian occupiers struck up to 20 power plants. She emphasized that the situation remains difficult and requires significant efforts to restore and build a new energy supply system.
