You can include following code into your customization layer:

(define %html-header-tags% 
  '(("META" ("HTTP-EQUIV" "Content-Type") ("CONTENT" "text/html;
charset=utf-8"))))

This will insert meta tag with encoding information into each generated
HTML file. Most browsers take encoding information from this place (but
you must be careful when serving pages from web-server, encoding
information served in HTTP headers has higher priority) and will change
encoding automatically.
