Mobile operators are obliged to provide communication during blackouts

In Ukraine, new requirements have been introduced for mobile operators, which oblige them to provide communication during power outages for 10 hours instead of the previous 4. These changes, announced by the State Special Communications Committee, are part of efforts to ensure the stability of communication in conditions of critical situations.

According to the new regulations, by October 1, 2024, at least 60% of operators' base stations must be provided with autonomous backup power. These requirements will gradually increase: by November 1 — 70%, by December 1 — 80%, and by the end of January 2025 — 100%.

By December 1, 2023, at least 25% of base stations in each region must be connected to generators capable of operating without electricity for 72 hours. And from September 1, all objects must be provided with this possibility. This means that mobile operators are obliged to guarantee stable access to the Internet and communication even during long blackouts.

These measures are critical for maintaining communication capabilities in Ukraine, especially in times of war and energy crises. Ensuring communication in important situations can save lives, so the new requirements are designed to increase the level of readiness of operators for extreme conditions.
