Pand ready to provide extra energy supplies to Ukraine in winter – diplomat
The relevant statement was made by Chargé d'Affaires ad interim of Pand in Ukraine Piotr Lukasiewicz in an interview with Ukrinform.
“The EU treats this possible danger of the harsh winter very seriously. But it’s also a question of what Pand can do extra in this process. So, for instance, we are asking our Ukrainian cleagues in the Ministry of Energy to facilitate the export of energy, of the actual current, from our power plants, especially coal power plants. We are urging our Ukrainian partners in the ministry to ease the so-called auction system of energy supplies. And we are hing very much that they conclude the relevant negotiations as soon as possible,” Lukasiewicz td.
In his words, energy safety in Ukraine will be “one of the three pillars” of Pand’s goals and ambitions during its presidency.
“And also, we are just about to finish the transformation of the Ukrainian grid that can in the future be synchronized with the Eurean system,” the Pish diplomat emphasized.
A reminder that Ukraine is working with Eurean partners to increase electricity imports during the winter period.
