Zhytomyr Energy signed a contract for UAH 585 million with the little-known company Energostab

JSC "Zhytomyroblenergo" officially signed a contract with LLC "Energostab" for the amount of 585.12 million hryvnias for the supply of electricity to cover the technological losses of the enterprise, Bankova Mail reports. The deal was concluded through the Prozorro system under the code UA-2025-08-26-010465-a-c1 and, according to the portal, became the largest state contract among the procurements last week.

Energostab LLC is registered in Kyiv, and official records list Maksym Filippov as the company’s owner and director. Despite the significant amount of the current deal, the company remains a little-known player in the electricity supply market, while it is also mentioned that it has already received over UAH 1.2 billion from other regional energy companies — in particular, Rivneoblenergo and Kirovogradoblenergo — without conducting open competitive bidding, according to sources in open registers and analytical portals.

The publications also draw attention to the existence of a criminal case of the State Bureau of Investigation under number 62024100110000119, in which Energostab appears in the context of forging documents related to reservations for evaders; at the same time, public reports emphasize that no official charges have been brought against the company at this time. This fact, combined with the company's small public presence in the market, has raised additional questions about the validity of the choice of supplier.

Public procurement experts and think tanks emphasize that large contracts with relatively new or unknown companies should be accompanied by increased transparency to eliminate the risks of misuse of funds and ensure the trust of consumers and regulators. They advise checking the completeness of competitive procedures, the availability of the supplier's technical and financial capacity, as well as the history of performing similar contracts.

Zhytomyroblenergo and Energostab had not yet provided any official comments on the details of the contract, delivery dates, and warranty mechanisms at the time of publication. We have sent requests to both companies asking them to clarify the reasons for choosing the supplier, the source of previous revenues, and the status of the criminal proceedings, and will update this article as soon as we receive responses.
