“The debt did not arise yesterday and the day before yesterday, this debt was accumulated for years, and we have repeatedly said that this issue should be resolved,” he said.
According to him, the main reason for the debt crisis is a distorted market model.
“It was created because the energy market works imperfectly. What is done? This is Price CAP, firstly. Secondly, the fixed price of electricity and so on. And the cost of electricity production with the level of consumer payment is not balanced,” Plochkov emphasized.
He noted that debts cover all market segments.
“There is not only a debt for” green ” [производителей электроэнергии из возобновляемых источников]. There are about a hundred billions as a whole, if you take all the debts in the energy market, ”the expert said.
Prochkov drew attention to the situation around the launch of new auctions in the green “energy sector that does not attract investors.
“Why will the question arise to” green “manufacturers now? Because we are now announcing auctions for the construction of stations, and no one is involved, no one invests … What investor will come to build the infrastructure and produce products for which there are huge debts?” He explained.
Plachkov emphasized that without a systematic solution to the problem and an honest approach to all market participants, it will not work to attract investors.
