Guaranteed Buyer launches 850 MW RES support auctions for September (700 MW wind, 100 MW solar+BESS, 50 MW solar)
Last editorial update:
JSC Guaranteed Buyer has formally announced three online auctions via Prozorro.Sale for allocation of 2026 RES support quotas totaling 850 MW: 700 MW wind (30 Sep, price cap 8 EUR ct/kWh), 100 MW solar+BESS (25 Sep, 12 EUR ct/kWh with min 80% power and 2 kWh/kW storage requirements), and 50 MW solar (25 Sep, 8 EUR ct/kWh). Eligible in 13 regions including Kyiv, Chernihiv, Poltava and others plus Kyiv city. Support is 12-year market premium. Quotas were raised to 1 GW total earlier in 2026.
Why it matters
Direct origination catalyst for 5–100 MW solar, hybrid and wind projects. The dedicated solar+BESS quota with clear technical specs creates bankable offtake for flexibility assets critical to grid resilience. Western/central regions are eligible, lowering relative security risk versus frontline oblasts. Investors should prepare bids and site readiness ahead of late-September deadlines.
