Residents of three districts of Volgograd will face scheduled power outages on March 19, 2025. The planned temporary outages are due to necessary repairs at the electrical grid facilities, according to Volgogradenergo, the regional energy supplier. These outages are precautionary measures aimed at maintaining the integrity and reliability of the power supply.
From 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the Soviet district will experience significant interruptions. Specific streets affected include 35th Guards Division street with house numbers 38, 40, 42, and 44 temporarily without power.

The disruptions on various streets within the Soviet district will extend throughout the day.

According to representatives from PAO Rosseti Yug, which manages energy services across the region, the outages are necessary to facilitate repair and preventive work on the electrical networks. These scheduled interruptions on March 19 are part of routine maintenance aimed at ensuring efficient energy distribution and preventing unexpected failures.
Residents have been advised to make arrangements for the outages, which are expected to end by 5:00 PM on the same day. The underlying message communicated by energy officials is the importance of these repairs, with the aim of enhancing the reliability of power supply for everyone involved.
The timing of the outages has raised awareness among the local community, as many have planned for these interruptions to coordinate their daily activities. While these inconveniences may cause momentary disruptions, the long-term benefits associated with improved electrical service are aimed to outshine the temporary lapses.
Local residents are encouraged to stay updated through official channels, including social media and local news, on developments concerning the outages. Authorities have also promised to provide usual updates during the outages, ensuring everyone is well-informed.
It's always prudent for residents to have backup plans and resources during such scheduled outages—whether it's having flashlights ready, adjusting their schedules or keeping powered devices charged. Preparation can make the inconvenience of lack of electricity more manageable.
March 19 will provide plenty of challenges for many, but with the collaborative efforts from the energy providers and the residents' cooperation, the primary goal remains the reinstatement of reliable electric service across Volgograd.
