Managing electricity demand in times of crisis

Organiser: Green Deal Ukraina

Format: online

Russian attacks are undermining the adequacy of Ukrainian electricity supply. Accordingly, not all demand could be met by available supply at all times, and the system operator must rely on load shedding (i.e., disconnecting specific consumption) to balance the system in these instances. Such load shedding is disruptive for society and economy and finding a balanced approach is politically, socially and economically valuable.

In this webinar experts will provide an overview of existing rules (upcoming briefing: “Load Shedding in Ukraine: Rationing Rules, Data Availability and Economic Efficiency”), discuss the value of electricity consumption and discuss how market tools can reduce load shedding needs (upcoming briefing: “Demand Reduction as Potential Relief to Load Shedding in Ukraine”). After presentations by experts from Green Deal Ukraїna at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin and the consulting firm Compass Lexecon, we will openly discuss this sensitive subject with regulating bodies, operators, consumers, and other market participants.

Join to discuss data-driven strategies to improve rationing mechanisms, enhance economic efficiency, and reduce demand in times of crisis.
