The status is not granted in the event of death resulting from one’s own unlawful conduct, suicide, or voluntary surrender.

State-owned producers, such as Energoatom and Ukrhydroenergo, are now required to sell a portion of their resources through special “take or pay” auctions. Buyers bear commercial risks and must confirm the intended use of the electricity to the transmission system operator. To participate in the auction, financial guarantees of up to 15% of the lot value have been introduced, which are automatically credited as advance payments.
