Emergency shutdowns will be: the Russian Federation is ready to strike a new rocket strike in Ukraine - Shmigal
According to him, on January 5, electricity consumption in Ukraine increased. Therefore, in the center and in the east of the country, as well as in Odessa, Lviv and Dnipro, schedules of planned shutdowns had to be introduced. More expected serious cooling is expected, so consumption will increase again and the deficit in the grid will increase. "In addition, the enemy is ready to strike another rocket strike on civil and energy infrastructure.
Therefore, we all have to be ready to restore emergency shutdowns," Shmigal wrote. The Prime Minister has stated that the power system of Ukraine is working steadily, the repairs continue, and therefore there are practically no emergency shutdowns. There are now 11. 7 billion cubic meters of gas in underground gas storage facilities and 1. 2 million tons of coal in warehouses. Partners allocate money so that Ukraine can additionally buy the right resources.
"We can say that we are successfully overcome the challenges of winter," Shmigal said. He also stated that the government would do everything possible for 2023 to become a big step towards restoration of Ukraine's economy. "The government will assist the private sector for its part, will continue the preferential lending programs for business recovery. The Erobot grant program will also be continued.
Regulatory and fiscal incentives within industrial parks and investments will also continue," Smigal said. According to him, the main task is to continue economic visa waiver with the European Union, within which all duties on Ukrainian products exported to Europe are lined. Priorities will also be new routes and logistics. We will remind that earlier "Ukrenergo" warned about possible emergency shutdowns of light in Ukraine.
