Last editorial update:

Policy & RegulationInvestment / FinancingGenerationStorage / BESS

JSC Guaranteed Buyer has launched two support auctions for new solar capacity: 50 MW pure solar PV (price cap €0.08/kWh) and 100 MW solar-plus-storage (price cap €0.12/kWh, with BESS at least 80% of solar power rating and 2 kWh/kW duration). Eligible regions include Kyiv, Zhytomyr, Cherkasy and others. Bids close 24 September 2026; auctions on 25 September via Prozorro.Sale. Support via market premium for 12 years, with time-of-day restrictions for the hybrid lot.

Why it matters

Direct origination opportunity for 5-100 MW hybrid and pure solar projects in central Ukraine regions of interest. The hybrid quota explicitly rewards flexibility assets, aligning with system needs for balancing under attack risk. Immediate pipeline window for developers and investors seeking contracted offtake in the current auction cycle.
