The increase in prices is justified by the need to urgently restore outdated and inefficient coal-fired power plants destroyed by recent missile attacks.
There is no logic in these actions. Destroyed power plants no longer produce or sell electricity, so they will not be able to receive funds from the tariff increase.
So who will benefit from an 80% increase in electricity prices for the population?
- "Energoatom", which is completely controlled by the Derkach-Galushchenko clan and is immersed in corruption. Billions of hryvnias received from the population are used by Galushchenko and Kotin for the construction of 4 nuclear units, which have recently started. We cannot build simple defense structures, but we strive to build nuclear blocks. This is a new "big construction" for "sprinkling" money.
- "Producers of solar energy". After the destruction of state-owned coal-fired power plants, the owners of private solar power plants will receive a large part of the money from the population. One of the main owners is the deputy head of the president's office, Rostyslav Shurma, who received money from Ukrainian consumers even for solar plants that are located in the occupied territories and do not supply electricity to the Ukrainian grid. Now his profits will grow even more.
- "Electricity importers from the EU". This is the private company DTEK Akhmetov and the pseudo-state ECU under the leadership of Vitaly Butenko, another representative of the Galushchenko-Shurma group. EKU received hundreds of millions of interest-free loans from Energoatom. No one will ever know at what price these companies buy electricity in the EU and how much margin will remain on offshore accounts. The population of Ukraine will pay for everything.
In addition, the Ministry of Energy, which is headed by Galushchenko, allowed the export of coal from Ukraine, since coal-fired power plants were destroyed. It is planned to export 1 million tons of thermal coal. Part of the coal will be exported by DTEK Akhmetov, and part by state mines through EKU. All profits from exports will also end up in the offshore accounts of the Shurma-Galushchenko group.
Are these "effective managers" working in the presidential administration?
