Ukraine's goal in the energy sector is to ensure the maximum integration of energy markets with EU markets, synchronization of Ukraine's integrated energy system with ENTSO-E. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal emphasized in his statement at the Fourth Ukraine Reform Conference underway through July 7-8 in Vilnius, the Republic of Lithuania.

The Head of Government presented a plan of reforms in Ukraine until 2030. In particular, energy sector reform and environmental protection, according to the PM, include the liberalization of the electricity market, the simplification of connection to the electrical grid system and the gradual transition to market electricity prices and the monetization of subsidies for vulnerable groups.
