Less than a month ago, during the fourth meeting of the Steering Board of the Ukraine Investment Framework in Brussels, a new package of investment programs was approved. These programs target both the public and private sectors of Ukraine’s economy.
EU Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos said this in an interview with Ukrinform.
“With this, we are mobilizing more than EUR 10 billion across different areas — the human dimension included,” Kos said.
According to her, the flagship initiative is the Equity Fund for Ukraine — an EU-backed private equity fund that will channel large-scale investments into critical sectors for Ukraine’s reconstruction. It will support, among other things, enterprise growth and financial stability while aligning Ukraine’s economy with EU norms. Participating countries include Germany, France, Italy, and Poland. These countries will initially contribute a certain amount, and then, as with any equity fund, it will crowd in private capital in critical sectors, including infrastructure, health, energy, and more.
Another top priority is support for renewable energy, particularly solar and wind. A Renewable Energy Guarantee of Origin scheme is a pioneering guarantee complemented by donor funding that will unlock up to 1.5 GW of renewable energy capacity in Ukraine, Kos said. This EU-supported mechanism will stabilize energy markets and fast-track green energy investments using proven, bankable models.
Through the Ukraine Facility, large-scale investments will be channeled into critical sectors of Ukraine’s reconstruction. For instance, EUR 134 million in Solidarity Lanes, a finance contract with the Government of Ukraine, and compensation for destroyed residential properties — that is part of the Home Project with the World Bank
Kos also mentioned other efforts, including a project with the French Development Agency for municipal infrastructure, as well as cooperation with the European Investment Bank.
“All in all, EU-supported investments and de-risking instruments will guide public and private actors through a robust pipeline of reconstruction-ready projects, for a total of new EUR 10.5 billion in mobilized investments,” Kos said.
The official presentation and signing of the relevant documents took place during the Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC2025) in Rome on July 10-11.
