President Poroshenko pushed a button starting a GE wind turbine Wednesday but did not publicly talk about the fate of the green energy auction bill in the Rada. “The new energy industry is one of the most important, primary issues for moving our state forward,” the President said. Hailing the Primorsk project by DTEK Renewables to build 52 towers with 3.8 MW turbines on Zaporizhia’s Azov coast, the President said: “It is through such projects that we turn Ukraine into a regional leader.” Back in Kyiv, 700 km to the north, analysts noted that the President did not use the press event to throw his weight in the Rada behind passage of the auctions bill, a step designed to unlock more wind and solar investment.
