ENTSO-E has increased the capacity to import electricity to Ukraine - up to 2.1 GW

From December 1, the maximum capacity for importing electricity from EU countries will be increased from the current 1.7 to 2.1 GW. This was reported in ENTSO-E.

"Operators jointly assessed the state of the power system and looked for ways to maximize capacity this winter. The results of the calculations allowed the operators to ensure an increase in the power supply limit to Ukraine and Moldova to 2100 MW during this winter. This means an increase of 400 MW compared to the previous value," the report says.

The limit of 2,100 MW will be applied from December 1, 2024. From March 2025, operators will be able to review commercial capacity limits between the EU and Ukraine and Moldova every month.

Also, as noted in the Ministry of Energy, Ukraine will additionally have the opportunity for a guaranteed 250 MW of transfer capacity from the EU in emergency aid mode.
