The state decision to repay debts to producers of green electricity for 2022-2024, which exceed UAH 20 billion, will become an impetus for stimulating the development of renewable energy in Ukraine.

This was announced by the head of the board of the Association of Solar Energy of Ukraine Vladislav Sokolovsky, reports "

He noted that in any case, debts must be closed to stimulate the development of renewable renewals in Ukraine.

Sokolovsky named the bill No. 9381, which awaits the president’s signature, and which provides for the direction of saving means of “Ukrenergo” from dispatching debts to the renewable power plant (45% of industrial and 10% of home SES), as well as for the next solution..

" Plus, part of the other 45%will return in a circle, which will go to pay off the debts of the system operator in the balancing market. It is difficult to say for sure, but as a result of the renewable Rines receives more than 4.5 billion UAH, ”said the representative of investors.

At the same time, he believes that without external financing, it will be difficult to pay off old debts to industrial renewables.
