The structural reorganization of PJSC "Kyivenergo" will not affect the process of returning heating facilities to city management. Moreover, as a result of the reorganization, it will be about the return of the heat business to the city as a whole, and not only individual objects.
This position was expressed by Petro Panteleev, Deputy Chairman of the KMDA, commenting on the decision to reorganize PJSC "Kyivenergo".
We will remind you that the decision on reorganization was made on November 13, 2017 at the general meeting of the company's shareholders. Such a step is a requirement of the Law of Ukraine "On the Electricity Market", which "Kyivenergo" is obliged to fulfill.
As a result, the functions of distribution and supply of electricity are separated. Two new companies will be created: one will be engaged in the distribution of electricity and the operation of power networks, the other - in the supply of electricity.
The entire thermal unit belonging to the city community remains under the management of "Kyivenergo" until the existing agreement with the city is completed.
"For the city government, it is fundamentally important that there is no threat of violation of communal property rights in this case. Moreover, after the distribution of functions, we can talk about the transfer to the city not of individual objects, but of the heat business as a whole. However, for this, it is necessary to resolve a number of mutual issues, including the prospect of further management of power grids that belong to the city (15% of the total number), but remain without sources of financing for their operation," he said.
The Kyivenergo company confirms that the property right of the Kyiv community on TPP-5, TPP-6, the "Energia" plant, heat networks and other objects remains inviolable.
