Analysis of the Draft Law of Ukraine<\/title><br \/>\n<\/head><\/p>\n<h4>Analysis of the Draft Law of Ukraine on the Implementation of EU Legislation in the Field of Renewable Energy Sources<\/h4>\n<h5>Essence of the draft law<\/h5>\n<p>This draft law aims to adapt Ukrainian legislation to European norms in the field of renewable energy. It amends the laws “On Alternative Fuels”, “On Road Transport”, “On Alternative Energy Sources”, “On Heat Supply”, “On the Electricity Market” and others, in order to stimulate the production and consumption of energy from renewable sources. The project also introduces new terms and mechanisms, such as zones of accelerated development of renewable energy sources, communities in the field of renewable energy sources, statistical transfers, and promotes the integration of the Ukrainian energy system into the European energy space. It also provides requirements for sustainable development and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the production of biofuels and other types of renewable energy.<\/p>\n<h5>Structure and main provisions<\/h5>\n<p>The draft law consists of 11 sections, each of which amends certain laws of Ukraine. The main changes concern:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Law of Ukraine “On Alternative Fuels”: The list of terms has been expanded (biobutanol, biohydrogen, biomethane, etc.). Requirements for the administration of accounting for the content of biofuels and control over its compliance with sustainability criteria have been added.<\/li>\n<li>Law of Ukraine “On Road Transport”: The definition of “solar-electric vehicle” was introduced and the term “electric vehicle charging station” was updated.<\/li>\n<li>Law of Ukraine “On Alternative Energy Sources”: New terms have been added (administrator of the electronic trading system, energy cooperative, zone of accelerated development of renewable energy sources, community in the field of renewable energy sources, etc.), as well as provisions on the calculation of gross final consumption of energy from renewable sources, statistical transfers, joint projects with countries of the Energy Community and third countries.<\/li>\n<li>Law of Ukraine “On Heat Supply”: The term “energy carriers” has been updated and the term “centralized heat supply or centralized cold supply” has been added.<\/li>\n<li>Law of Ukraine “On the Electricity Market”of Energy”: The rights and obligations of active consumers have been clarified, and the concept of “co-located energy storage installation” has been introduced.\n<p>## Most important provisions<br \/>\nThe following aspects may be important for different groups of stakeholders:<br \/>\n* **For legislators:** Implementation of European directives, harmonization of legislation, fulfillment of international obligations.<br \/>\n* **For experts:** New definitions and support mechanisms, sustainable development requirements, certification procedures.<br \/>\n* **For business:** Opportunities for the development of renewable energy production and use, new markets, simplification of permit procedures in accelerated development zones.<br \/>\n* **For citizens:** Incentives for the installation of generating units, the possibility of participating in renewable energy communities, information on energy efficiency and renewable sources.<\/p>\n<p>Analysis of the explanatory note:<br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html><\/p>\n<p><head><br \/>\n<meta charset=\"utf-8\"\/><br \/>\n<meta content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0\" name=\"viewport\"\/><br \/>\n<title>Analysis of the Draft Law on Renewable Energy Sources<\/title><br \/>\n<\/head><\/p>\n<h4>Analysis of the Draft Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding the Implementation of the European Union Legislation in the Field of Renewable Energy Sources”<\/h4>\n<section>\n## The essence of the draft law<br \/>\nThis draft law aims to harmonize Ukrainian legislation with the norms of the European Union in the field of renewable energy sources.
