She spoke about the start of work on preparing the energy system and housing and communal services for next winter as part of Odesa region's resilience plan.

For the autonomous operation of critical infrastructure, we expect to have 4 GW of distributed generation across the country by the beginning of the next heating season. The participation of the private sector is important for us in this work.

According to her, the government is creating incentives for businesses to participate in the development of their own capacities: in particular, 0% loans for energy equipment up to UAH 10 million for up to 3 years continue to be available, with 150 loans totaling UAH 227 million already issued. Also, 5-7-9% loans are available for the purchase and installation of energy generation and storage facilities up to UAH 250 million and for a period of up to 10 years.

"It is necessary that all Ukrainian enterprises move in this direction and increase their self-sufficiency in electricity generation by next winter," the head of government summarized.
