Previously, the price limit for 00:00 to 07:00 was UAH 3,000/MWh, for the period from 11:00 to 17:00 the prices remained unchanged.

For the time period from 07:00 to 11:00 and from 23:00 to 24:00 — 6,900 UAH/MWh. Before that, from 07:00 to 08:00 — the maximum prices were UAH 5,600/MWh. From 08:00 to 11:00 they remained unchanged. At the same time, from 23:00 to 00:00, they increased from UAH 3,000/MWh.
