KYIV, Aug 13 (Reuters) - Ukraine will need $20 billion in investments to develop its renewable power sector under a plan which seeks to boost its share in the country's energy mix to 27% by 2030, the government said on Tuesday.
The country's energy sector has lost half of its generating capacity as a result of Russian missile and drone attacks, which intensified in spring 2024, forcing it to rely on its nuclear plants as well as solar and wind generation.
The plan approved by the government aims to add around 10,000 megawatt of new generation facilities.
The share of renewable energy in heat and cold supply systems should reach 33%, in electricity generation 29% and in the transport sector 17% in 2030, the government said.
It did not say what the current share of renewables in the energy mix was. Local media reported that it accounted for 10%.
The government also said it would announce several tenders for the construction of new generating capacities of 700 megawatts and 5 to 80 megawatts. The new facilities are to be operational by the end of 2027.
Nuclear is Ukraine's largest source of low-carbon energy, but its plants have become the site of safety fears during the war with Russia.

I’m just laughing.
It is to laugh.
Lol, they act like they will have country.
Unfreaking believable. They are being obliterated, their energy infrastructure destroyed, and they are worried about renewable energy to “save the earth”???
Perhaps they should concentrate on survival.
With that sheer stupidity, they don’t deserve another dime for anything.
End game....they will be begging Russia for gas.
They need to start their own scam with our money, of coarse our line of corrupt politicians will be invested heavily in it
They must be planning on getting some of those electric army tanks.
They shouldn’t use some of the best farmland in the world for solar panels.
And the $20 bn comes from who?? Cuz Ukraine isn’t exactly holding Job Fairs.
Stupidity is perpetuated by continued funding of it.
Pull the plug and see what sanity develops. Regardless, you are no longer subsidizing stupidity, so you are less stupid.
Nutz.

What a bunch of Euroweenie idiots. A “proposal” like that is nothing more than a signal they fully want to be in the fold of the EU EUdiots.
Sadly, I’ll bet that $20 billion expenditure will come straight out of the pockets of the US Taxpayer.
Ukraine is just showing solidarity with another of the cabal’s agendas. If you don’t dance to their tune, they stop putting other people’s money in your cup.
That’s a slush fund and a waste of priorities during a time of war.
Disgusting
Probably coached by Al Gore, Biden and other grifters on the take.
Holy cow. So bloody corrupt. They place is just like democrat America. I’m disgusted.
Yep. We pay all that money to destroy the country then we’ll pay as much to rebuild it. Easy to see coming, isn’t it?
