Ukraine Energy Market Observatory

In an effort to streamline and consolidate its monitoring functions under the Energy Community Treaty with regard to Ukraine, the Energy Community’s largest member currently suffering from a war of aggression by the Russian Federation, the Secretariat created the Ukraine Energy Market Observatory. The Observatory will closely follow and review all developments related to the energy market and corporate governance in Ukraine. In full respect of confidentiality requirements, the assessments will be published and made available to domestic and international stakeholders involved. This will support the further integration of the Ukrainian energy sector with Europe and help building trust in a predictable and transparent governance in line with European practices.

In performing its tasks, the Ukraine Energy Market Observatory relies on all available sources of information. All stakeholders are invited to contribute to the reporting by submitting information to the Secretariat. Full confidentiality of your submission is ensured by the Energy Community Secretariat.
