Licensing of electricity production
Is your company planning to generate electricity? Whether you’re a large energy company or a small business looking to install solar panels, obtaining an electricity production license is mandatory.
We help legal entities and individual entrepreneurs navigate all stages of this procedure. Our experience with various types of power plants (solar, wind, hydroelectric) allows us to develop an individual approach for each client.
What is an Electricity Production License and Why is it Needed?
An electricity production license is an official document that gives legal entities or individual entrepreneurs the right to engage in electrical power generation activities. Obtaining a license is mandatory for connecting a power plant to the grid and subsequent sale of generated electricity.
Types of Licenses
There are two main types of electricity production licenses:
- General License: issued for a long term and allows electricity production on a large scale.
- Special License: issued for a specific term and for a particular power generation facility.
License Application Procedure
The procedure for obtaining an electricity production license can take from several months to a year and includes the following stages:
- Document Preparation: obtaining a license requires preparing an extensive package of documents, including company statutory documents, technical and economic feasibility studies, land lease agreements, etc.
- Application Review by the Regulatory Body: the National Commission for State Regulation of Energy and Utilities (NKREKP) reviews the submitted application and documents.
- On-site Inspection: NKREKP specialists conduct an inspection of the power generation facility.
- Decision Making: after reviewing all documents and conducting the inspection, NKREKP makes a decision to issue or deny the license.
Cost of Electricity Production License
The cost of fees and charges for obtaining an electricity production license in Ukraine can vary depending on the type of license and power plant capacity (higher capacity means higher fees).
Main payments required:
- Administrative Fee: Approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and paid when submitting the license application.
- Application Review Fee: The amount depends on project complexity and the workload required from the regulatory body.
- License Issuance Fee: Paid after a positive decision on license issuance.
Important to note:
- Payment amounts may change: current information about payment amounts should be verified with the National Commission for State Regulation of Energy and Utilities (NKREKP) at the time of application. Or our lawyer will provide this information to you.
- Additional expenses: besides state fees, there may be additional costs related to document preparation, expert examinations, premises rental, etc.
