The National Bank forecasts that the electricity deficit will exceed 7% in 2024, be close to 8% in 2025, and around 5% in 2026.
These figures are cited by the head of the National Bank of Ukraine, Andriy Pyshnyi, in his article on the Ukrinform website.
"We assume that the electricity deficit will exceed 7% in 2024, be close to 8% in 2025, and around 5% in 2026, and it will be one of the main factors slowing down the economy," Pyshnyi wrote.
Meanwhile, according to him, significant budget expenditures and international aid will contribute to recovery, as well as the development of export routes and distributed electricity generation, which will support the economy.
"The NBU's forecast is quite conservative - we expect economic growth of 3.7% in 2024 with further acceleration to 4-5% in 2025-2026," said the head of the NBU.
