By 2023, Naftogaz of Ukraine will be a supplier of “last resort” (“SLR”) based on the results of a governmental tender among natural gas suppliers.

The "last resort" supplier is a guarantee that prevents the consumer from being cut off if the previous supplier is unable to provide natural gas. The reasons why households switch to SLR’s servicing include: bankruptcy or liquidation of the supplier; suspension or termination of the supplier's licence; absence of the client in the register of the supplier’s consumers; failure to order gas for the customer. The supplier of "last resort" as a consumer insurance mechanism began operating on 01 August, 2020.
