During the Summer 2026 transition, we will shift the clock forward by sixty minutes, resulting in a loss of an hour of sleep. News from Gazeta Express on March 23, 2026, at 10:44. The standard change from winter to summer time will take place on the last Sunday of March.
This year, it aligns with March 29th, requiring the clock hands to move forward one hour from 03:00 to 04:00. Daylight saving time will continue until November 25th, 2026. The main purpose of this alteration is to preserve electricity.
Over the course of seven months during the summer, approximately 210 hours of energy are saved due to increased daylight. This practice began in the 1970s, largely driven by the oil crisis, and many European nations adopted it to maximize daylight usage. Since 1996, a European regulation has been in place governing this seasonal adjustment of time.
