LUN, a Ukrainian real estate startup, has developed an interactive map alongside the Ministry of Digitalization that outlines the service availability of different network providers during power outages and allows Kyiv residents to choose internet services based on their needs.
Residents can check the duration of available internet connections during blackouts (up to 72 hours) based on the provider, the connection technology used, and the cost of services so they can apply for new internet services ahead of the expected Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

LUN has since developed other interactive maps after the full-scale invasion, incorporating other points of interest such as shelter locations and working businesses during blackouts.
