Debts in the electricity market hinder investments in renewable generation.


Debt in Ukraine's electricity market is a serious problem for the development of the energy sector. This was reported by Daria Orlova, an energy market analyst at ExPro Consulting.
According to Ukrenergo, the debt to the operator in the balancing market exceeded 35 billion UAH
The problem also arises from the financing of the 'green' tariff. According to the expert, in 2024 it was only financed by 80%. This poses a threat to investments in the industry.
The market situation is one of the most important factors for potential investors. Their low interest is related to the current state and the overall capacity of renewable energy sources, which currently stands at only 20 MW
One of the main obstacles for investors is the issue of investment insurance and risk management in wartime conditions. Orlova explained this.
Earlier, the expert noted that the debt in the energy market is a significant obstacle to the development of new generation and the attractiveness of investments in the industry.
