President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting with key Ukrainian energy companies on 1 March,

"All those on whom the stability of our energy system depends took part. It was a long meeting – three hours. Energy companies: Naftogaz, Energoatom, Ukrenergo, Ukrhydroenergo, and others. The government. The office. The head of the relevant committee of the Verkhovna Rada. Military. Intelligence," Zelenskyy said in his evening video address.

He noted that the last winter was very difficult, but the state managed to provide energy and heating.

"Yes, the threat to the energy system remains. But the work for the sake of the power system continues. We have recorded the current tasks to complete this heating season properly. And we have already started preparing for the next season – each of the meeting participants has received their part of the assignment in this regard. We see the risks – we will find a response," he said.

Ukrenergo said earlier that the export of Ukrainian electricity to European countries could be resumed within a week, provided the power system is not hit badly by shelling.
