Details: The energy ministry noted that no rolling power outages are forecast for today.
Ukrenergo, Ukraine's state-owned electricity transmission operator, reported that electricity consumption has begun to rise.
As of today (7 May) at 09:30, its level was 1.9% higher than at the same time on the previous day, 6 May. The increase is due to hot weather across most oblasts, leading to greater use of air conditioning.
Background: Following Russian attacks on energy infrastructure in frontline oblasts, new outages were recorded in Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv oblasts on the morning of 6 May.
