Two items were put up for auction: 30 thousand MWh peak load and 7.7 thousand MWh on a non-working day according the peak sale of schedule of August delivery.

As a result of the auction, the weighted average price of the peak load decreased by 449 UAH / MWh, and amounted to 1251 UAH / MWh. The weighted average price of the peak load of the non-working day decreased by 463 UAH / MWh and amounts to 1187 UAH / MWh.

"Today, another successful UEEX auction took place, as a result of which the peak load price decreased by 26.4%, and the price of peak of non-working day - by 28%. The sale by state-owned companies of a share of the generation volume on the exchange is a mechanism for additional fundraising and a way to prevent the formation of a corruption component in the sale of state resources " - summed up the results of the auction CEO of UEEX Oleksandr Kovalenko.
