President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky instructed the Cabinet of ministers to immediately submit a program to encourage the installation of solar generation and energy storage facilities in Ukraine, as well as the most favorable program. He also noted that all critical infrastructure facilities need appropriate alternative sources of energy supply. Zelensky stated this in an evening address, reports UNN.
"The government has been instructed to immediately submit a program to encourage the installation of solar generation and energy storage facilities in Ukraine, as well as the most favorable program. So that it is easily an analog of the 5-7-9 program, but the percentage is zero per annum in UAH for citizens, "Zelensky said.
He noted the need for a clear plan for the completion of all protective structures for the energy sector, and for each such object – a clear deadline for completion of work. We need to speed up the performers at each level.
"All public and administrative facilities in the country, all critical infrastructure facilities need appropriate alternative energy sources. For this purpose, the government, regional and local administrations, energy companies and everyone who should be involved should work together and so that Ukraine enters the heating season prepared at the level of each community and our entire state," Zelensky added.
