“According to Energy Minister Herman Galushchenko, electricity exports from Ukraine will be exported exclusively under the conditions of power surplus in the power system”, – WRITE: www.radiosvoboda.org
“Increasing the maximum export capacity is an important step that will facilitate the balancing of the Ukrainian power system, as well as allow Ukrainian power plants to make additional profit, which will direct additional resources to eliminate the consequences of Russian shelling and preparation for the winter,” said Energy Minister.
According to him, exports of electricity from Ukraine will be made exclusively under the conditions of power surplus in the power system.
Vitaliy Zaichenko, Chairman of the Board of Ukrenergo, reported that the term of the new export limit – until August 1, further the maximum export capacity will be viewed on a monthly basis. In addition, in the course of the weekly assessment of the condition of the network, the amount of exports can be adjusted in accordance with the requirements of operating safety.
“In order to avoid accidents, the power system must operate balancedly – the amount of energy produced every minute must correspond to the amount of consumed. In the summer, during the efficient operation of solar power plants, it is the increase in electricity exports that is one of the ways to overcome the generation surplus, so that the power plants do not have to restrict the operation of power plants, ”he said.
Due to massive Russian blows in the summer of 2024, Ukrainian household consumers had electricity according to schedules, with significant restrictions. The situation was normalized in the fall, when, against the background of reducing the intensity of firing of energy objects and reducing consumption energy, energy was able to balance the system. At the same time, restrictions for industrial consumers have been applied much longer, even in the spring of 2025.
The first month of the summer of 2025, Ukrainian energy lived without tangible problems for consumers.
