Improvement of the Land Code, namely: The construction of WTGs can be carried out on land plots of any land category and/or type of designated purpose. 2. Improvement of the Law “On Finance...”, namely: to provide financial institutions with the opportunity to provide project financing for WTG and

How the state provides incentives or “stimuli” for the development of highly maneuverable generation (HMG). Part 4: As of now, we record what incentives for HHG have been recently provided by the state: 1. Setting a fixed gas price at UAH 16500 including VAT per 1000 cubic meters of gas https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/s

How the state provides incentives or "stimuli" for the development of highly manoeuvrable generation (HMG). Part 3: Where to find reserves in existing generation? Currently, biogas plants with a total capacity of hundreds of MW are operating in the energy market. The exact capacity of the State Enterprise "Guaranteed Buyer" is not yet publicised. These plants operate at a feed-in tariff and supply electricity to the grid on a regular schedule throughout the day. The plants have 5 years left to operate at the green tariff. A big advantage of biogas pow

How the state provides incentives or ‘stimuli’ for the development of highly manoeuvrable generation (HMG). Part 2: The optimal market for HMP operation is the ancillary services market (ASM). That is, the market where shunting generation and SPG are needed to maintain/restore frequency. And frequency is a key factor in electricity quality. Until mid-2023, an essential condition for certification to operate in the DSO market was the capacity of the facility - from 20 MW. Almost a year since this condition was changed! Now any plant from 1 MW can operate in th

How the state provides incentives or ‘stimuli’ for the development of highly manoeuvrable generation (HMG). Part 1: Gas turbine (GTU) and gas piston units (GPU) are the only fast technical tools for the implementation of shunting power generation. Therefore, the CMU Resolution No. 222 of 06.03.2022 was amended to impose special obligations on natural gas market participants, namely: 1. Until 31.08.2024, NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine purchases natural gas at a price of UAH 7,240 per 1000 cubic metres for electricity producers. 2. Until 31.08.2024, NJ

It has been more than a year since the active phase of the war with Russia began, which was not limited to the territory of Ukraine but also extended to the struggle for control over the power grids. The date of February 24, 2022, was not only the day of Russia's attack on Ukraine, but also the beginning of the Ukrainian power system's operation in isolation from the power systems of Russia and Belarus. In March 2022, Ukraine's power system was synchronized with the European power grid ENTSO-E. President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted that this step allowed
