The Ukrainian government, local municipalities, the private sector, and international financial institutions are all prioritizing investments to revitalize the energy sector. The reconstruction needs for Ukraine’s energy and extractive industries have already exceeded SEK 516 billion, according to joint assessments by the Ukrainian government, World Bank Group, European Commission, and United Nations (RDNA3). This situation presents significant opportunities for international businesses to contribute to the reconstruction efforts. Given the evolving landscape, Swedish energy companies could play a crucial role in Ukraine’s recovery, supporting a smooth transition to a greener and more sustainable economy.
In January 2024, the first webinar in a partnership between BuS Ukraine and the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine took place. The second webinar is to highlight the recent changes and stimuli provided by the government to overcome the challenges and prepare for the upcoming 2024-2025 winter season as well as recent developments aimed at boosting distributed generation introduction in Ukraine. Along with updated information from the government, we aim to present a Guide for Swedish Companies on Opportunities in the Energy Sector of Ukraine, to showcase new financing mechanisms available and successful cases of cooperation and highlight the significant business opportunities Ukraine offers for energy companies in terms of trade and investment.
