Legal entities when working with the “green” tariff should pay attention to the following information.

“Green” tariff – a special tariff at which electricity is purchased, produced at power facilities that use alternative energy sources. (Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Law “On Electric Power Industry” of 16.10.1997 N 575/97-VR).

Important points of the legislation are the provisions that producers of energy from renewable energy sources have the right to:

1. Guaranteed connection to existing energy networks;

2. Guaranteed purchase by energy supply organizations of all energy produced from renewable sources;

3. Invariance of tariffs at which energy is purchased during their validity.

In accordance with the signed Association Agreement with the EU (Article 338, Chapter 1, Section V), Ukraine has undertaken additional commitments on the gradual integration of Ukraine’s electricity system into the European electricity grid, as well as stimulating the production of energy from renewable energy sources.

As of the beginning of 2019, Ukraine has some of the highest rates in Europe for the “green” tariff. The validity of the “green” tariff is enshrined in law until 2030.
