Electricity Ministry declared on Monday that it needs to reduce the load on the electric network after four days during which such step was not necessary.
The daily bulletin issued by the National Energy Control Centre (NECC) said the highest load on Tuesday could reach up to 22,700 megawatts.
Meanwhile, the ministry renewed its calls on citizens to rationalize their consumption to avoid power outages.
