For several months now, the government and responsible authorities have been preparing for the new heating season of 2022-2023, which should be difficult for Ukrainians.

As the Minister for the Development of Communities and Territories Alexei Chernyshev said on Facebook, heat tariffs for citizens will not change and will be stable.

“The heating season will start on time. We have all the prerequisites for this”he is convinced.

However, there are a few restrictions that Ukrainians need to get used to. Firstly, no more open windows in winter and street heating.

Secondly, following the example of European countries, Ukrainians’ homes will be supplied with heat in the range of 18-20 degrees. The lowest mark will be at around 16 degrees inside the apartment.

According to the minister, the main task is to survive the winter and ensure the continuity of heat. Therefore, everyone needs to prepare for the cold already now.

Who will be left without heat?

Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal warned that some Ukrainians will be left without heat in winter. This is all due to the fact that the invaders damaged the infrastructure in some settlements, and it will not be possible to repair centralized supplies until the end of 2022.

In fact, after the victory of Ukraine, the objects destroyed by Russian missiles and shells will have to be restored from scratch. We are talking about hundreds of broken and lost boiler houses that supplied heat to small towns.

To support Ukrainians in cold weather, the government will provide communities with fast modular boiler houses. They will run on different types of fuel and can be deployed within a week.

The prime minister stressed that even in the worst case, all procedures are prescribed and agreed with local governments. Among other things, they created a stock of special generators for electricity and purifiers for drinking water.
