"Kyiv Digital" has launched a map of public water fountains.

The "Kyiv Digital" application now includes information about over 170 drinking water supply systems in the city, displayed on the "Resilience Map." Residents of Kyiv can now quickly find the nearest drinking water supply system, learn about its operational status, and determine if it can be connected to a generator during power outages.

Deputy Head of the Kyiv City Administration, Valentyn Mondryievsky, emphasized the importance of this update amid Russian attacks on the energy infrastructure, which could lead to disruptions in water supply. "In situations where prolonged power outages could lead to disruptions in water supply, it is important to quickly find the nearest water tap and know whether it can operate using a generator," the official noted.

In Kyiv, there are over 170 public water fountains, located in various districts. More than 150 of them have the technical capability to be connected to a backup power source. In the event of prolonged power outages and disruptions to the centralized water supply, employees of utility services, at the decision of the operational staff, deliver generators and connect them to the fountains. However, the presence of a technical capability to be connected does not mean that each fountain is constantly operating on a generator.

To access information even without mobile service or internet, residents of Kyiv are advised to download the map in the "Kyiv Digital" application in advance. To do this, you need to open the application, go to the "Resilience Map" section, download the map for offline use, and add the "Resilience Map" to the "Quick Access" section in the profile settings. In addition to water fountains, the map also indicates shelters and heating points. If a water fountain is not working, residents can submit a request through the "1551" application or the "1557" chatbot.
