Discussion on the electricity off-take price guarantee fund gained momentum after initial proposals by UWEA and EUEA associations in early 2024 and GDU at the URC in Berlin in June 2024.
We observe and support parallel efforts from other expert groups elaborating similar ideas aimed to derisk electricity off-take, for example, the concept of PPA Guarantee Fund/PPA Marketplace from Business. Advisory Council – part of the Multi-agency Donor Coordination Platform for Ukraine created by G7.
Interest by project developers, financiers and IFIs materialized throughout 2024.
UWEA and EUEA secured support to the concept from the Ministry of Economy and Ministry of Energy in 2024.
Discussions with IFIs, DG ENEST and other key stakeholders in December 2024 and January 2025 indicated continuous interest in the Fund’s concept.
