The Ministry of Energy and Environment Protection is creating Ukrvuhillia state-owned enterprise. Corresponding order No. 13 of January 14, 2020 was posted on the website of the department. The document also approves the charter of the enterprise, and obliges the HR department to take measures regarding the appointment of the head of the enterprise.
The ministry said the decision to create Ukrvuhillia was made with the aim of eliminating the shortcomings of the current system of selling coal mined by state-owned coal mining enterprises, conducting a unified state policy regarding the extraction, processing and sale of coal, optimizing the structure of the procurement market, in particular imports, and creating a single platform for a rapid response to the problems of the coal industry.
The main idea of creating the enterprise is to ensure the proper and transparent functioning of the coal market, to protect Ukrainian producers from the influence of uncontrolled imports, as well as to sustainably meet the needs of domestic consumers in scarce grades of coal.
