🏭 Deputy Mykhailo Bondar has called on the Ministry of Energy to intervene in the situation with the Chervonohradsk Enrichment Plant. ⚖️ The fate of the enterprise's launch will be decided at a court session on August 19 regarding the appointment of an arbitration administrator. 📉 Conflict between state and private creditors is hindering the rehabilitation process. ❄️ Without resolving the problem, risks to the preparation for the heating season and Ukraine's energy security increase.

⚡️ Experts warn: Ukraine may be left without imported electricity this winter due to price caps. Vladimir Omelchenko (Razumkov Centre) explained that artificial price restrictions block purchases from Europe during peak demand. 📉 In January 2026, prices were temporarily raised, but in March they were returned to the old level. 🏗️ To prepare for winter, it is also necessary to unfreeze "Heat Communal Energy" accounts and strengthen the protection of substations. 🗓️ The Verkhovna Rada plans to abolish price caps only in May 2027, which raises concerns among analysts.

⚡️ Deputy Viktoriya Hryb demands Ministry of Energy intervention due to the shutdown of the Chervonohrad Beneficiation Plant. The plant has been idle since January 2026, blocking coal supplies to thermal power plants and creating an energy security threat ahead of winter. ⛏️ 🏭 Sanation has lasted 8 years: one manager's appointment was annulled in April, another declined in July. A decision on a new candidate is expected on August 19. 📉 Consequences: wage arrears, destruction of capacity, environmental issues in Sosnivka. The deputy calls on the Ministry of Energy to unite the position of state creditors and launch the plant before the heating season.

NKREKP has approved a 25% increase in the electricity transmission tariff starting August 1, 2026. The rise is linked to the inclusion of obligations for the development of 'green' energy in the cost. Tariffs for the population remain unchanged for now, but the IMF demands further price liberalization. ⚡🇺🇦

The head of Ukrgasvydobycha, Yurii Tkachuk, is being considered as the main candidate for the position of acting head of NAK "Naftogaz of Ukraine". 🇺🇦 The appointment is expected immediately after Serhiy Koretzky moves to the position of Prime Minister.
