⚡️💸MPs again suspect collusion and price speculation in the electricity market. Akhmetov wins again
Head of energy Andriy Herus asked the Cabinet of Ministers to investigate the abnormal price drop in the electricity market that occurred on 11–13 July. In his view, the collapse of the base price indicator cannot be explained by market factors and shows signs of manipulation. This may have allowed private buyers at the auctions on 14–27 July to purchase electricity from state JSC "NNEGC Energoatom" and PJSC "Ukrhydroenergo" more cheaply and resulted in losses for the state.
Just from the results of the last auction on 27 July, Energoatom sold to D.Trading, from Rinat Akhmetov’s group, 243 megawatts at 5 745 UAH. And now, when it’s time to sell that energy on the market, it already costs 9 069 UAH.
Recall that in winter a similar situation occurred with an increase in price caps, from which Akhmetov’s firm also benefited, but after the publicity D.Trading terminated its contracts with Energoatom.
