Thermal power generation04 July 2022

DTEK Kyiv Regional Grids continues to register meters readings and returns to the work format that was applied before the beginning of hostilities. Readings will be again registered both on the switchboards in common areas and in the residents’ houses and apartments. Reference data will help ensure correct billing of customers for consumed electricity. The company asks not to interfere with the work of company’s employees and to provide them with access to the meters.

The war in Ukraine forced many residents of the region to flee their homes and sometimes they are unable to submit actual meter readings. In such cases, the company conducts estimation of average readings according to monthly consumption, which is not always correct. That is why DTEK specialists resumed registering reference readings from customers, whose meters are installed in apartments and at the territory of private houses, thus allowing verification of accurate functioning of the meters and compare readings for correct actual energy consumption billing.

“Since April, registering of reference readings has been carried out only on switchboards, located between floors at the stairways and on transmission line poles in the private sector, without entering customers’ apartments and houses. We are now normalizing work format that we had before the beginning of hostilities,” – informed the company.

The company asks customers not to interfere with the work of company’s employees and to provide them with access to the meters.
