in Kyiv, and the streets are dark and snowy. After several waves of missile attacks on theof Ukraine over the past month, electricity is rationed and whole blocks are in blackout. In a hip former industrial area full of restaurants and bars, partygoers gather at the entrance to an underground club to be checked by bouncers. The dress code being enforced is “Dress to Impress”. It’s 6:30 in the evening. Nightclubs start early in wartime; curfew is at 11pm.
Over the summer, away from the frontlines, life had begun to return to normal. The mayor of Kyiv’s office has estimated from mobile-phone traffic that the population has fallen from a pre-war 3.7m to 3m, of whom roughly 400,000 were displaced from other areas. “In September, in general we had,” says Hlib Vyshlinsky, head of the Centre of Economic Strategy.
After the first big missile strike targeting electrical infrastructure on October 10th, businesses began to adapt quickly. The streets now hum to the chug of private generators. “Everyone doing business in Ukraine got used to the idea that every day can be different from the previous one,” says Ievgen Klopotenko, a chef with well-regarded modern Ukrainian restaurants in Kyiv and Lviv, in the west of the country.
He reckons that power from the generator at the Centre for Economic Strategy is about three times costlier than mains electricity. Only some businesses can afford that. Some boast of their generators to woo customers. One private hospital in Kyiv is advertising its ability to continue working with “a fully autonomous electricity supply”. Manyworkers are using co-working spaces which have invested in generators and tout for business on ads in bus stops.
