YASNO Director urges Ukrainians to prepare for blackout

Sergey Kovalenko, director of the Ukrainian energy company YASNO, said on September 8 that there could be power outages in Ukraine this fall. In this regard, he urged citizens to prepare for possible power outages.

"Autumn is a bit of an alarming time for power engineers. It is difficult to predict what will happen this fall. <...> I recommend that the population and businesses be prepared for different scenarios," Kovalenko wrote on Facebook (owned by Meta, a company whose activities are recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation).

He advised Ukrainians to stock up on powerbanks and flashlights, check their performance, and prepare a supply of water and non-perishable food at home.

In addition, Kovalenko urged businesses to check the serviceability of backup power sources such as generators that were used during previous power outages.
