Repower Ukraine with Energy Storage and Renewables

This is a crucial moment for the future of Ukraine’s energy system, as the country works on a plan to rebuild in the aftermath of a devastating conflict, this event seeks to bring together key stakeholders and decision-makers to explore how energy storage technologies and renewables can play a pivotal role in enhancing Ukraine’s energy resilience.

Renewables and energy storage are cornerstones of a sustainable, secure, and independent energy  future for Ukraine. By integrating these sectors into the rebuilding process, Ukraine can reduce its  dependence on external energy sources, build infrastructure that is more resilient to external  shocks, and increase its energy security.  The event will feature keynote addresses from high-level government representatives, and expert  panel discussions aimed at sharing best practices on combining renewables and energy storage,  scoping the specific need for the rebuilding effort, foster new partnerships, and advance policies that  ensure renewable energy and energy storage are prioritised in Ukraine's energy strategy in the EU.
