Ukraine will now be able sell its electricity on the European market, Finance Minister of Ukraine Serhii Marchenko has said in a Facebook post.
“Ukraine has recently joined the European grid by becoming a member of ENTSO-E. Thus, the electricity produced in Ukraine can be sold on the European market. I discussed this opportunity with all European colleagues. Deputy Prime Minister, Bulgaria’s Finance Minister Assen Vassilev has expressed readiness to put on the government’s agenda consideration of the issue of purchasing electricity produced by us,” he wrote.
