Energy workers resume registering electrical meters readings

Thermal power generation18 April 2022

DTEK Kyiv Regional Grids specialists resume registering residents’ electrical meters readings. Meter’s reference data help ensure correct billing of customers for consumed electricity. Commencement of works in the Kyiv region is scheduled for April 18.

War in Ukraine forced many residents of the region to flee their homes, and they are unable to submit actual meter readings. For this reason, the company conducts estimation of average readings according to monthly consumption, which is not always correct. That is why on April 18 DTEK Kyiv Regional Grids specialists resumed registering customers’ reference readings, thus allowing verification of accurate functioning of the meters and compare readings for correct energy consumption billing.

Inspectors will not enter houses and apartments. Works will be carried out only on meters, located in the panels between floors, in the panels at the stairways and on transmission line poles (for private sector). There is no need to ring doorbells of apartments and houses.
