On May 25, the “Energy of Business” pre-conference, organized by Forbes Ukraine, took place in Kyiv. In a Chatham House format, participants divided into five working groups and discussed:
- money and capital;
- regulatory stability;
- generation 2026–2036;
- financial stabilization of the market;
- the role of state-owned energy giants.
Olena Pavlenko, President of DiXi Group, chaired the working group titled “Financial Market Stabilization. Eliminating Debts, Cross-Subsidization, and Tariff Realities.” Participants included representatives from transmission system operators, public and private businesses, and industry organizations. Discussions focused, in particular, on how to break the cycle of accumulated debts among market players and whether a hybrid approach — where both the market functions and subsidies are in place — is feasible.
The working group “Regulatory Stability: Predictable Rules, Removal of Barriers, Regulatory Reform” was moderated by Roman Nitsovych, Research Director at DiXi Group.
Based on the discussions, the participants identified five key priorities that will strengthen the country’s readiness for the upcoming heating season and contribute to the development of a new energy system model.
