Challenges of LCP Directive Implementation Big scope of the task and tight schedule of its implementation Annual non-recoverable ecotax Technical restrictions: absence of free areas, flexible operation modes of thermal power plants CHALLENGES TO EXECUTION OF DIRECTIVE 2001/80/ЕС Lack of experience in design and construction of sulfur and nitrogen treatment systems in Ukraine High cost of flue gas treatment systems, which does not match the actual capacities of the companies in this sector Energy strategy of Ukraine Несоответствие by 2030 does Энергетической not comply with стратегии the present Украины realistic на situation период and до 2030г. requires реалиям adjustment сегодняшнего дня и необходимость ее корректировки The issues of recycling/disposal of sulfur-nitrogen treatment products have not been studied Lack of a governmental plan (program) for reduction of pollutant emissions

Scenario of the Competitive Environment Development in the Thermal Power Generation Sector 2010-2011 2012-2014 2015-2016 2017-2018 2021-2022 2024-2030 TPP privatization Market liberalization Preconditions for new construction: growth of tariffs, electric power deficit Start of new generation construction by private companies First retrofitted units retire. Commissioning of new TPP Quick loss of market share by power generating units with efficiency of less than 35% Liberalized market will have not be established till 2014. The environmental program can be implemented at the expense of electricity tariff, but only within a limited scope. As for thermal generation, 30-35% of the comprehensive environmental program can be implemented with governmental support. The initiation of postponement of the LCP Directive implementation is a must. Old units will lose their competitive position and be replaced with new ones. A TWO-STAGE PROGRAM IS THE MOST REALISTIC SCENARIO FOR IMPLEMENTING THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAM: Stage 1 to implement the environmental program at the expense of the investment component in the electricity tariff Stage 2 to replace old units with new ones equipped with sulfur and nitrogen treatment systems. Year 2030 is the earliest period for execution of EU environmental requirements

Household Tariffs Are Among the Lowest in Europe Average households electricity rates in Europe, / Kwh Ukraine min Ukraine max 0,025 0,033 below 150 kwtper month above150 kwt per month Russia 0,08 The average household tariff for the EU-27 is 0,16 /Kwh. with the striking difference to Ukraine at 0,025-0,033 /Kwh. To bring Ukrainian tariffs to an economically justified level a four-fold increase is needed.

Conclusion and Initiatives It is not possible to implement the requirements of Directive 2001/80/ЕСin full and on time. It is necessary to consider the opportunity to prolongthe execution period of Directive 2001/80/ЕС till 2030. EnCSecretariat might want to establish channels of communication with Ukrainianbusiness and experts on the above. Foreign independent experts might as well be involved. In order to understand and use international experience and the best practices, is necessary to involve foreign experts for joint development of a Road Map for execution of Directive 2001/80/ЕС. It is necessary to exert pressure on the authorities as to urgent beginning of development of a National Emissions Reduction Plan. The plan should be developed urgently and at the State level. Identification of possible sources of funding will be of key importance.
