Emergency power cuts continue in Kyiv. On Monday, residents stayed with no electricity for more than nine hours, on Wednesday - for seven hours.

The houses connected to the same network with critical infrastructure facilities will also be de-energized, the Kyiv City Military Administration reported on Telegram.

"If possible, power engineers will switch them to another line that can be turned off. Previously, there were 2000 such buildings in the capital, now there are 745. If the building cannot be switched to another line, it will be turned off manually. These responsibilities will be assigned to housing offices/condominium associations or management companies," the statement reads.

The speed of return to the planned stabiliыation schedules depends on Kyiv residents. Conscious consumption of electricity will accelerate the return of stabilisation schedules. After an emergency outage, do not turn on all electrical appliances in your home at once. Instant peak load impacts the power system badly.

Economical and conscientious consumption will reduce the time of outages and restore the full power supply faster.
