REmap 2030 Analysis for Ukraine Kiev,12 March, 2015
2
• Ukraine is part of the first volume of IRENA’s global renewable
energy roadmap (REmap)
• Ukraine is among the largest 26 energy markets that joined the
REmap initiative
• Focus on the potential, cost and benefits of renewables that can
realistically be deployed beyond Ukraine’s plans to 2020, with focus
on sectors and technologies
• In close collaboration with the SAEE
• Part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI) project, supported
by Germany’s BMUB
• Background paper for the analysis issued
REmap Ukraine background
3
• Base year – 2010
• Reference Case – current policies and under consideration
• REmap 2030 – addition of REmap Options on top of Reference Case
for an accelerated RE deployment (in 2020 & 2030)
Data sources for Ukraine REmap analysis
• 2010, data from State Statistics Service of Ukraine & IEA
• Reference Case:
National Renewable Energy Action Plan 2020
Energy Strategy of Ukraine to 2030
Input from the SAEE
• REmap Options, based on review of literature and government papers
• Costs of RE and energy prices, literature, IEA & IRENA estimates

Indicators
• Cost-competitiveness of renewables compared to fossil fuels
• Socio-economic benefits (jobs, energy supply security)
• Short-term and long-term supply security
Natural gas is mainly used for the heating sector (residential, district heat
producers, industry)
65-70% of total consumption is imports (USD 500/tcm, May 2014 import
price)
Storage important for short-term, 32 bcm capacity today, majority in West
Renewables are in particular important for the long-term
Renewables are part of a package of measures, with energy efficiency,
increased own natural gas production, storage, diversification of supply
• There are important questions about:
How to proceed with district heating – upgrade or reduce use
How to deal with energy subsidies and affordability
7
Drivers for renewables
• 2009: 3.3% RE share in TFEC, 67% bioenergy, 32% hydro, 1% others
• 2030 Reference Case: 11.8%; 82% bioenergy, 7% hydro, 4% wind
• REmap 2030: 21.5%
• Total RE use grows ten times from 87 PJ to 870 PJ, substituting natural
gas for heat and coal/NG for power generation, oil in transportation
• Total RE use is about a quarter power, three-quarters end-use
• Biomass key technology for all sectors
• 77% bioenergy, representing 17% of TFEC in 2030
• Between 2010 and 2030, 24.9 GW RE power capacity
Wind and solar PV (+20 GW), biomass (+3.5 GW)
• Total savings in energy system costs of USD 110 million per year
• REmap 2030 reduces Ukraine’s total natural gas demand by 16% in
2030 compared with current policies

How to accelerate
renewables uptake to 2030
Planning transition pathways
• Develop a national T&D grid plan that considers 15% generation from wind and solar
• Modernise and improve efficiency of existing power & heat generation capacity with
energy efficiency and renewables
• Complement and improve energy efficiency and supply security by diversifying NG imports
and increasing domestic production of natural gas
Creating an enabling business environment
• Utilise local manufacturing capacity to create an affordable market for RE equipment
• Increase in investments in both domestic/foreign in new capacity by easing GT tariffs, and
by developing incentives for small-scale investors
Ensuring smooth integration
• Develop collection systems for agricultural residues, and invest in infrastructure for
sustainable recovery of forestry biomass
Creating and managing knowledge
• Add knowledge on resource potential and cost and benefits of renewables, and develop
norms, rules, standards and definitions
