1% for energy efficiency

In order to renovate multi-family housing stock within the following 20 years Ukraine requires annual investments of 140 bn UAH (15% of the state budget). In last year population’s demand for state aid for winterization of homes rose sharply whereas funds/allocations are lacking.

The main target of the “1% for energy efficiency” campaign is to increase financial state aid to the minimum of 1% of state and local budgets for the implementation of energy efficient measures by the population.

Last year ensured that state aid for energy efficiency in 2018 amounted to 2 million UAH, 2.5 times as much as the amount originally allocated by the government. However, this constitutes only 0.2% of the budget – these funds will not be sufficient to cofund the modernization of at least a small part of housing in the country. Ecoaction is striving for the government to prioritize the issue of energy efficiency and ensure ongoing and sufficient state aid for the population.
