In March 2025, Ukraine raised its electricity imports by 11% compared to February, reaching 272,000 MWh.
This information comes from the specialized publication ExPro.
According to the report, Hungary emerged as the largest supplier, contributing 42% of the imported electricity.
Additionally, the shares of imports from other countries were: 19% from Slovakia, 18% from Poland, 16% from Romania, and the remainder from Moldova.
The increase in imports was noted in all directions except for Slovakia. However, on a yearly basis (up to March 2024), imports shrank by nearly 40%.
In March, Ukraine also doubled its electricity exports, reaching 76,300 MWh. This was made possible by an increase in generation from solar power plants during the day, causing a surplus in the energy system.
Reminder:
In February, Ukraine imported 511.8 million cubic meters of natural gas, the highest monthly volume in 1.5 years since September 2023. Compared to January, gas import volumes increased 12 times.
