Kyiv suspends street lighting to save electricity

Kyiv will temporarily turn off street lighting due to an electricity shortage, according to the city utility "Kyivmisksvitlo." The decision, made by the Kyiv City State Administration, mandates a complete shutdown of external lighting for municipal property, except for cabinets powering warning systems, which will operate only when electricity is available until 22:00. This measure aims to prioritize power supply for critical city facilities. Separately, DTEK Kyiv Electric Grids has launched a government hotline for residents to inquire about electricity supply.
