How reliable is the electricity supply in Batumi, Georgia, and which areas experience outages?

In early September 2026 a Batumi resident wrote that the power had just gone off and asked whether anyone had seen notice of breakdowns or works that day. They added that their bills were paid — so it was not a matter of unpaid electricity.

In August 2026 a resident noted that it all depends on the neighbourhood: in their area the power was cut only twice, for a couple of hours, both times during a breakdown.

The same August 2026 discussion described another case: the power went out for a couple of minutes, and afterwards the supply stayed weak — not enough to run a microwave. A transformer fire on Pushkina Street was named as the cause. If your flat has sensitive appliances, keep an eye on such low-voltage periods.

In late July 2026 a Batumi resident who rarely leaves home — and so, in their words, notices interruptions — wrote that not only breakdowns but also planned outages had become more frequent. The day before, the power went off briefly, and on the day of the message it went off again for a couple of minutes.

Another resident replied the same day that their power had not gone off — while admitting they might have been asleep or out. In their view there is no trend towards more frequent breakdowns. Impressions differ noticeably between residents.
