In the period from August 11 to 18, 2022, NAEC “Energoatom” supplied the Romanian company “A+++ STREAM ENERGY AND GAS SA” with 7,858 MWh of energy for a total amount of 3.61 million euros, of which the buyer paid only 1.13 million euros. The company is still solving the problem with the remaining debt of about 2.48 million euros. ZN.UA writes about this with reference to its own sources. Thus, on August 5, 2022, Energoatom, through its subsidiary Energoatom Trading, concluded an agreement on the export of electricity to Romania with a local private trader and supplier, who received a profile license from the National Energy Regulatory Authority in Romania (ANRE) for only nine months before that, in November 2021. The agreement provided for the supply of electricity to the Ukrainian-Romanian border during August 2022 in a maximum volume of up to 44,640 MWh at a price of EUR 609/MWh.

However, before the arbitration award, in May 2023 “A+++ STREAM ENERGY AND GAS SA” filed for bankruptcy in Romania. The local court accepted this application the following month, in June. Courts are currently ongoing to recognize the decision of the Stockholm Arbitration in Romania, which would allow Energoatom to at least join the pool of creditors of the bankrupt company.

It is significant that at the end of July 2022, i.e. shortly before the end of the contract for the import of energy resources from NAEK “Energoatom”, control (80% of shares) of “A+++ Stream Energy And Gas SA” was taken over by a Ukrainian with Romanian citizenship, Yurie Taghiltsev, who became the sole head of the company without staff,” writes ZN.UA. The publication also drew attention to the fact that the story did not gain publicity in Ukraine, but The Romanian media covered it in great detail.We will remind: EU Ambassador to Ukraine Katarina Maternova drew attention to the fact that Ukraine has voluntarily undertaken to bring the supervisory board of Energoatom into compliance with OECD standards, which requires the presence of an independent supervisory board at this state-owned company. advice
