Power outages cause failures in heating networks in Brovary

In Brovary over the past two days, ongoing power outages and voltage fluctuations have caused failures in the heating networks, while water supply and sewage systems continue to operate without disruption.

KV learned this from a message by Brovary city mayor Ihor Sapozhko on Telegram.

“Just in the last two days, critical infrastructure facilities have been operating under conditions of almost constant power absence. This is an enormous strain on the system, because every power disconnection/reconnection and the significant voltage fluctuations—from very low to critically high—cause water hammer in the system and other technological problems,” the message says.

Water supply, wastewater disposal, heat supply, and other vital services directly depend on the stable operation of the power system. At present, Brovary utility enterprises are operating under increased load and the constant risk of new failures.

Municipal workers are working to eliminate the consequences on the heating networks, and residents are asked to be understanding of temporary interruptions in service delivery.
