As of the morning of April 21, electricity consumption in Ukraine has decreased by 12.6% compared to the previous working day - April 18.

NEK “Ukrenergo” reported on Facebook that electricity consumption in Ukraine continues to decline, writes Ukrinform.

“Electricity consumption has decreased. Today, April 21, as of 9:30, the level was 12.6% lower than the previous working day - Friday. The reason is a non-working day declared by some employers,” the agency quotes the company.

Moreover, sunny and warm weather throughout Ukraine contributes to a reduction in electricity consumption from the general grid.

Ukrenergo advises shifting active energy consumption to the period of the most effective operation of solar power plants, using powerful appliances from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

It is also worth noting that a week ago, on April 15, the heating season for 2024/2025 officially ended in Ukraine.

Heat supply has been stopped in all regions, but some social institutions, such as hospitals and schools, will continue to receive heating under certain temperature conditions.

How many times has the Russian Federation attacked Ukraine's energy system during the heating season?

Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal announced the successful completion of the third heating season amid the full-scale war, despite numerous Russian attacks on the country's energy system.

According to him, during the 2024/2025 heating season, Russia carried out 9 massive and dozens of smaller attacks against the Ukrainian energy system.

“And despite all this, we endured. Homes of millions of Ukrainians, schools, and hospitals had light and heat. Our enterprises also operated without significant restrictions,” the Prime Minister said.
