Procedure for registration as a participant in the electricity market of Ukraine

In order to register as a participant in the electricity market, provided you already have a license, you will need to go through a number of registration steps:

  • Obtaining the EIC code of type X, an identifying code in the electricity market which will be used to conclude any transaction;

  • Signing an agreement with Ukrenergo. This will enable access to networks for the electricity, and payment will be set for such services;

  • Connection to Oblenergo. You can connect to any number of Oblenergos in Ukraine. As a standard, we conduct the first connection and offer our Clients a clear instruction on how to connect to the following Oblenergos, at their discretion;

  • Conclusion of the agreement with the Market Operator. This can be done simultaneously with the connection to the Oblenergo. To work with the Market Operator you need an account, which requires the preparation of a certain package of documents;

  • Registration on the Ukrainian Energy Exchange. Registration is performed online on the website of the Ukrainian Energy Exchange. During registration, you will need to select the desired sections.


Please note!
In fact, the electricity market consists of several separate markets, which are called segments. They operate independently, with their own rules and prices.

You can choose the desired market segments. For example, if you are going to make “short” deals – buying today and selling tomorrow – all it takes is to register in the day-ahead and intraday markets.
