June 22-28

  • Commercial imports of electricity to Ukraine fell by 39.1% to 47.1 GWh. Exports, however, rose by 14.3% to 50.1 GWh. Thus, export volumes exceeded imports for the first time since October of last year.
  • For the first time in nearly 20 years, the Ministry of Energy invested funds from the financial reserve for the decommissioning of nuclear facilities in domestic government bonds, purchasing nearly UAH 400 million worth of domestic government bonds. In total, the ministry plans to invest approximately UAH 785 million in 2026, which should ensure the preservation of the reserve’s value and generate additional investment income.
  • The Cabinet of Ministers published a resolution introducing special auctions for the long-term procurement of electricity by Energoatom and Ukrhydroenergo, specifying sales volumes, the auction procedure, requirements for collateral, and mechanisms to monitor the intended use of the purchased electricity.
  • The NEURC amended the Gas Transmission System Code, allowing customers of transmission services to transfer to other users the right to submit nominations and renominations regarding allocated bundled capacity at cross-border interconnection points without transferring the obligation to pay for it. At the same time, the regulator established transmission tariffs for cross-border interconnection points in energy units (euros/MWh), which is a necessary prerequisite for allocating capacity in energy units. Both measures are important for implementing the Roadmap to enhance the commercial attractiveness of the Trans-Balkan Gas Route.
  • During the 2026 Ukraine Recovery Conference, international partners announced new financial packages, investments, and partnerships for the Ukrainian energy sector worth hundreds of millions of euros. The largest agreements include the launch of the European Flagship Fund for the Reconstruction of Ukraine with an initial capital of EUR 265 million, a package from the United Kingdom worth nearly GBP 290 million (including 210 million pounds for the supply of nuclear fuel), Sweden’s allocation of approximately EUR 140 million to support the energy sector, the possibility for Naftogaz to secure up to USD 300 million from the EXIM Bank to purchase U.S. oil and gas equipment, as well as EBRD financing for power generation projects, renewable energy development, and the modernization of energy infrastructure.
