Kyiv: Ukraine could have an electricity generation surplus thanks to mild and sunny weather and plans to resume energy exports on Aug. 25, national power grid operator Ukrenergo said on Friday.

"Exports will take place only during the surplus period - during the active operation of solar power plants. During periods of maximum consumption, when there is not enough capacity in the energy system, Ukraine will not export electricity," Ukrenergo said on the Telegram messaging app.

Ukraine plans to export power to Moldova, Romania and Hungary, Ukrenergo added.
