Germany has contributed €60 million to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund, which will be used in particular to supply generators, energy equipment, and mobile thermal power plants.
Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko announced this on Telegram.
“Germany is strengthening the resilience of our critical infrastructure by contributing €60 million to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund. These funds will help speed up the delivery of generators, energy equipment, and mobile thermal power plants. I expressed my gratitude for this decision to Germany’s Minister of Energy, Katharina Reiche,” she wrote.
Svyrydenko noted that during the meeting, the parties discussed Ukraine’s preparations for winter and the strengthening of its energy resilience. In particular, they agreed to establish a joint energy working group and to expand industrial cooperation.
“In December, a Ukrainian-German business forum will be held in Berlin, which could become an effective platform for new partnerships between our companies,” she added.
The Ukrainian side also proposed that Germany sign an intergovernmental agreement to support investors — following the model already implemented by Denmark, the Netherlands, France, and Switzerland.
The head of the government thanked Germany for its active stance on the use of Russian assets.
“Today, macro-financial support is especially important, and our German partners support any path that would allow the use of these assets to help Ukraine and bring the war to an end as soon as possible,” Svyrydenko added.
