3. in MT: USD 15.6 bn of IMF program for 4 years as a part
of USD 115 bn support package:
џ None of the financing is in fact ensured after 2023
џ Financing of recovery and reconstruction is lower than needed
џ Large financing is to help Ukraine “keep going”
USD 14 bn immediate needs for the emergency reconstruction
and recovery in 2023 (USD 11 bn are more or less there)
Low (legal and actual) capacities of local government to borrow
and repay debts: even IFIs financing is expensive for them -
grants are needed
џ Support includes debt relief and debt restructuring to be
negotiated
Reliance on FDI: need war insurance
Is there
financing
available?

4. Priority spending for 2023, USD 14 bn
But:
Overall, almost in all
directions is the room
for eco and green
џ Do we have capacity?
џ Do we have enough
financing?
џ Do we have time?
џ What is green?

5. Some
of the key
principles:
how to find
a balance?
People-oriented
Balancing
urgent needs
and medium- to
long-term goals
Resilience
and building back
better for a more
sustainable future

6. Overall challenges on the local level
Capacity building
Financial resources
Shortage of human capital Terminology: what is green?
Time and “speed”
Regional recovery plans
Legal framework

7. New programs to stimulate homeowners
associations (HOAs) creation at the local level
should be organized
Access to data - it is difficult to access energy
consumption data
Decentralization in energy means changes to
energy legislation and regulation - flexible
coordination between the central authorities and
local authorities, ability to develop and implement
local energy plans
Population of the cities and communities changed;
energy specialists left many communities and cities
and new capacities should be built instead
About us
Challenges in
energy sector
on the local
level

8. What we have now
MinRecovery has started the process of selecting
projects within the framework of the Financial
Agreement "Energy Efficiency of Public Buildings
in Ukraine" between Ukraine and the European
Investment Bank
Energy saving programs in some cities -
reimbursement of part of the interest on loans
for energy-saving projects from the local budget
(e.g. in the city of Kyiv)
Ukrainian NGOs launched an initiative to help
Ukrainian communities find partner cities and
communities in Europe, in order to establish
cooperation in the field of green recovery of
Ukraine
The program of “warm loans”, which
has been popular in Ukraine since
2014, was suspended during the war
The programs that operating within
the Energy Efficiency Fund face a
lack of funds for the implementation
of planned projects
Cities have some opportunities,
while households/homeowners
association still are lacking
access to support programs

9. Cooperation with EU cities to exchange
experience on various issues
English language courses would
be appropriate
Desire for recovery: EIB case
are allocated in accordance with the Financial Agreement between Ukraine and the
European Investment Bank. This money will be used to restore social and critical
infrastructure. These are the de-occupied territories of Zhytomyr, Kyiv, Sumy, and
Chernihiv regions, as well as Vinnytsia, Dnipropetrovsk, Kirovohrad, Odesa, Poltava,
and Cherkasy regions, which have been identified as supporting regions.
340
million euros
Only 83 projects are approved out of 1003 submitted
How to help with capacity building:
Technical support, etc.
Increasing financial literacy
Legal consultations

10. What to do with all this?
Let's brainstorm and discuss solutions
