Together with Mykola Kadenskyi, Head of the Network Development Department of the GTS Operator of Ukraine, talked about the prospects of establishing the State Decarbonization Fund, as the Parliament is considering a bill on the establishment of such a fund.
The source of formation of the State Fund for Decarbonization should be 50% of the environmental tax levied for emissions into the atmosphere from stationary sources of pollution from January 1, 2021, which is about 1.35 billion hryvnias.
The issues of consequences for Ukrainian industry from the introduction of the EU carbon adjustment mechanism at the border (CBAM) and the prospects of using “green” electricity from solar power plants for own consumption, including for the production of industrial products exported to EU countries, were also raised.
