ABOUT THE COMPANY

Centrenergo is Ukraine’s second-largest thermal generator by capacity (7,660 MW), operating three power plants in the industrialized regions of Kyiv, Kharkiv and Donetsk. Centrenergo has five gas-fired power units with a total capacity of 3,000 MW, and 17 coal-fired power units with a total capacity of 4,660 MW. However, only four coal-fired units operate on so called high volatile coal while the remaining units require anthracite, which became in short supply in Ukraine in 2014 as a result of the on-going ATO in the coal-rich eastern regions. The company’s generating capacities were built in the 1960’s-70’s. In 2014, it accounted for 7% of total electricity production in Ukraine (18% of the total production by thermal power generations).

2015 had been a challenging year for the company. In the 9 months 2015 the company sales declined by 50% compared to the previous year to 6 bn kWh. The reduction was primarily driven by a shortage of coal supply due to military activities in ATO region, which used to be core source areas for both anthracite and high volatile coal.
