HOT|COOL NO. 4/2021 - "Going Greener"

Going towards a green Ukrainian energy system

By: Mathilde Johanne Cordua, Climate Assistant and Ivan Zhuchenko, Project Manager, Ramboll

Ukraine aims to align its climate policy and legislation with the Paris Agreement and the European Green Deal by strengthening its cooperation with the EU on energy efficiency and substitutions for fossil fuels. However, the need for the substantial rehabilitation of Ukraine's buildings and energy infrastructure and the massive debt in the district heating sector is challenging Ukraine's green transition towards energy security, efficiency, and sustainability. Ramboll is a preferred partner in the energy sector in Ukraine, where they have supported rehabilitation projects for Ukraine's energy systems since 2010.
