Al 3-lea oraș ca mărime din România, în beznă. Oprește lumina pe străzi, face economie de 10 MWh pe noapte • Newsweek România
Iasi, Romania's third largest city, will turn off street lights to save 10 MWh nightly due to a national energy alert. Mayor Mihai Chirica announced this measure to ensure equitable energy consumption across neighborhoods. Exceptions will be made for critical areas like hospitals and pedestrian passages. The local police will increase patrols to maintain safety during this period. Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan emphasized the need for voluntary energy savings amid reduced electricity production caused by drought conditions.
