New developments.
  7. Plan for the implementation of Directive 2001/77/EEC on facilitating the use of electricity generated by renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market Plan for the implementation of Directive 2001/77/EEC was drafted in the first half-year of 2011, but was not approved in Ukraine; Update of the Energy Strategy until 2030 and setting a new target for renewable energies for Ukraine; Draft procedure on calculation of local content for the purpose of “green” tariff to be approved until September 2012.

  9. Change from single player model to direct agreements and EEX Колонтитул презентации
  10. Change from single player model to direct agreements (1) Law of Ukraine “On the Principles of the Electricity Market Operation ” – drafted, under negotiation, to be adopted till the end of 2012; Currently: Ukraine has the so-called central pooling (Single Buyer) electricity purchase model State Enterprise Energorynok is the single buyer of electricity in Ukraine, which sells the electricity to electricity distribution companies (Oblenergos) and independent suppliers; Oblenergos function as both the seller and the distributor of power that is generated; The new market model: provides for introduction of the competitive bilateral contracts market - the transmission (high voltage) and distribution (low voltage) of electricity should be separated from its generation and sale. The Ukrainian Energy Law. New developments.
  11. Change from single player model to direct agreements (2) Draft Law of Ukraine “On the Principles of the Electricity Market Operation ” provides for: bilateral agreements; energy exchange; non-discriminatory access to electricity network. The Ukrainian Energy Law. New developments.

The Ukrainian Energy Law. New developments.
  17. Unconventional gas exploration According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Ukraine has Europe's fourth-largest shale gas reserves at 1.2 trillion cubic meters; According to the data of Ministry of energy – 5 trillion cubic meters; On May 10, 2012 Ukraine determined the winners of a tender to sign an agreement on the development of the Oleske shale gas field in Lviv region (estimated reserves 2 trillion cubic meters) and the Yuzivske gas field in Donetsk region (estimated reserves 1.5 trillion cubic meters). The Ukrainian Energy Law. New developments.
  18. Energy Strategy, new version, big points Колонтитул презентации
  19. Energy Strategy until 2030 Nuclear energy development (The draft version of the Strategy, approved by the Ministry of energy and coal industry of Ukraine): Construction and commissioning of new nuclear power units* until 2030, minimal total capacity: 2 GW – worst case; 5 GW – basic case; 7 GW – best case. * - 04.07.12 CMU approved feasibility study of construction of power units 3 and 4 of the Khmelnitskaya nuclear power plant Renewable energy development: The installed capacity of renewable energy sources in 2030: 1.9 GW (0.1 GW in 2010) - The effective Energy Strategy of Ukraine until 2030; 6.0 GW - The Foundation for Effective Governance; 17.0 GW - The State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving of Ukraine; 5.2 GW - worst case (6.7 GW – best case) - The draft version of the Strategy, approved by the Ministry of energy and coal industry of Ukraine.
