Primul mare oraș din România care raționalizează curentul: Iașiul stinge o parte din iluminatul public pe timpul nopții

The mayor of Iași, Mihai Chirica, announced a reduction in public lighting starting from August 2-3 due to the energy alert declared by the government. This decision follows a call from interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan for authorities and citizens to voluntarily reduce electricity consumption amid a severe drought and decreased electricity production. The measure is expected to save around 10 MWh of energy each night.
