CoalUkraine

As of October 4th, there were 713,000 tonnes of coal stocks in the warehouses of Ukrainian thermal power plants (TPPs), which is 8.2% less compared to September 27nd (ukrinform). Compared with September 1st, coal reserves in the warehouses TPPs decreased by 3.4% and gas coal reserves rose by 7.5%.

The pilot project is funded by Britain, a country which has struggled with this challenge since the 1980s. Germany and Poland also are advising Ukraine on the transition. With the number of coal miners dropping, Ukraine’s transition largely has meant miners leaving mining regions for other jobs.
