The Ukrainian energy sector’s crucial problems, in particular, the outmoded equipment, the power
infrastructure shortcoming and a significant backlog in the energy supply quality from the European
one, based on the SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index) indicator comparison,
has been disclosed in this article. A considerable break in the energy supply quality in both
rural and urban settlements has been also revealed. The current state of the alternative energy development
has been described, the energy generation structure, as well as the rates of development
of the renewable energy sources’ usage have been analyzed. Some challenges in the imbalance of
the renewable energy sources’ usage and their analyzed consequences have been identified, among
others, the generation volume abruptness by both SPP and WPP, requiring maneuvering with the
traditional sources’ employer. The negative effect of the “green” tariff as the main priming stimulus
for the renewable energy facilities’ construction has been proven. Generally and particularly, the
financial influence level on the state has been analyzed, being manifested in the debts’ accumulation
to energy producers. The residual capability of solving the problems of alternative energy
development has been considered, in particular, the “green” auctions announced by the state, the
formation of the optimal predicted level of energy generation by SPP and WPP in order to prevent
sharp disparities in both electricity demand and supply. The biogas plants’ facilities as a ponderable
choice to both solar and wind generation have been analyzed.
