The head of state noted that gas generation will solve the issue of energy shortage today, and later it will be switched to hydrogen and balance the new "green" energy sector. He also noted that European and, in particular, German companies are technology leaders in this area.
It is in this area that we have a clear plan on how to build up to 1 GW of power this year. And another 4 GW-over the next few years. It is in this area that we sign our first contracts as part of our conference. And that's why we need your maximum leadership
The president called for doing everything possible to preserve the existing generation and restore the one that Ukraine lost due to Russian aggression.
For reference
The International Conference on Ukraine's recovery focuses on four main themes: private sector involvement in recovery, social recovery and human capital, community and regional recovery and EU accession and related reforms.
