Months of Russian strikes have caused severe power shortages across Ukraine, leading to regular blackouts. President Zelensky stated at a conference in Berlin that Ukraine had lost half its electricity generating capacity due to the Russian attacks, with peak consumption last winter being 18 gigawatts and 9 gigawatts destroyed. Power disruptions are increasingly common for Kyiv's population of about three million people since Russia began targeting the country's energy system in late March. Ukraine extends blackouts as Russian bombings continue. The renewed assault on Ukraine’s energy sector has significantly impacted Kyiv’s resilience, civilian morale, and industrial production.
