Norway has announced a €487,000 grant to support Ukraine's transition to renewable energy, a crucial step in rebuilding a war-torn country.

Decentralizing ukraine's energy system

The funding will finance geological and engineering surveys, as well as design documentation, for the Poltavska wind power plant project in central Ukraine. DTEK Renewables will lead the development, aiming to complete the project by 2028.

Ukraine's energy infrastructure has suffered devastating damage, with World Bank estimates suggesting reconstruction costs of $91 billion. This Norwegian support, part of an €8 million package for renewable energy and essential sectors, is essential in helping Ukraine rebuild a more decentralized and resilient energy system.
