GIZ Ukraine’s Post

Germany was one of the first partner countries who quickly understood the importance of renewable energy solutions for critical infrastructure in Ukraine. Projects like those implemented by Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation, NGO Ecoclub and Ecoaction - Centre for Environmental Initiatives 🇺🇦 should be scaled up asap all around the country. It’s about local resilience, energy security and support to #RebuildUkraineGreen

Discover how Germany is powering Ukraine’s recovery after devastating attacks on its energy infrastructure. From millions in aid to vital equipment deliveries, German support is not only bringing light back to Ukrainian homes but also shaping a more resilient and modern energy future.

Best invest in Building Fusion power, space, and maritime propulsion systems and industry, You talk about Nuclear (meaning Fission) and fail to discuss fusion. https://lnkd.in/ge_aeX7M The nuclear fission industry is, ignorant of what's happening around you. Pull your uranium heads out, start adjusting your industry to fusion energy and start preparing to enter the commercially growing fusion energy industry. As it dawns on Earth like the sun. Great Headline Guardian on Nuclear fission. https://lnkd.in/g8sMZtpR Fission is moving towards obsolescence at an accelerated pace, as it is "out of step, out of time, out of place," and merely a temporary industry globally. https://lnkd.in/gbd_mZqk Commercial fusion electrical generation is a promising innovative sustainable and clean energy method. By 2028, Helion is expected to start producing electricity from its first fusion commercial power plant, which will provide electricity to Microsoft. The plant will produce at least 50 MWe after an initial ramp-up period. https://lnkd.in/gY9J3MQY Now see what is happening in the Fusion industry in the world. https://lnkd.in/g9hMBD7a As fission trebles, fuel shortage is increasingly real, https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr

Rebuilding Ukraine sustainably is the largest carbon-capture opportunity in the modern history of construction. Using locally available renewables can only boost this positive impact. Well done AHK Ukraine - German-Ukrainian Chamber of Industry and Commerce

🔘 The #governments of Ukraine and #Slovakia held consultations in Michalovce, Slovakia. The two Prime Ministers discussed a number of key issues, including #energy, #economic #cooperation and humanitarian #supportUkraine. 🔔 During the #meeting, the Prime Minister of #Ukraine Denys Shmyhal informed about the current situation in the energy sector, in particular about the recent russian #drone strike on Ukraine's energy #infrastructure. The two sides agreed to modernize the electrical interconnector between Mukachevo and Velyki Kapushany to increase the ability to export and import electricity. 🤝 The governments plan to revise agreements on #financial, #technical, economic cooperation and social protection. They are also discussing lifting restrictions on Ukrainian #agricultural products and expanding trade ties. 🖇️Agreements were signed, including a #Roadmap for Joint Action and a #MOU of Understanding in the field of nuclear energy. The meeting confirmed the readiness of both countries to cooperate and #support each other in various areas. #leadership #StandWithUkraine #HelpingHand #humanresources #sustainability  #team #opportunities #project

One option is missing, namely the possibility of putting DC cables in existing and unused gas pipelines. This is a quick way of adding import capacity and reaching central Ukraine directly

Political analysts are still sifting through the results of the recent French election and how the coalition of parties from the left (which won the most seats in parliament) will attempt to govern. The election will undoubtedly have an impact on the future of the French electricity market. However, there are a few important items which had been decided prior to the election. Specifically, France's ARENH system (which was France's compromise to the EU) will come to an end at the conclusion of 2025. That means one more year of deciding between an ARENH contract and the free market - a difficult choice. What comes after ARENH in 2026 is still an open question.

Ukraine, which has been defending itself against a Russian war of aggression for almost three years, is stopping the transit of Russian gas at the beginning of the year. A corresponding transit contract is expiring, and Kiev had announced long in advance that it would not be extended. In mid-December, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reiterated that his country would not allow Russia to earn "additional billions" with "our blood". The halt in transit poses problems in the EU for Slovakia, which has a long-term contract with the Russian company Gazprom, as well as for non-EU member Moldova. In 2023, EU member states covered less than ten percent of their natural gas needs with supplies from Russia, compared to over 40 percent in 2021. #Ukrainewar #Gasdeliveries

This info should stur great concern in the Danish political community and also with our neighbours south of Denmark! It may not materialize, but certainly a risk. May be it is urgent to consider the need for alternative electricity supply, also when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining. Gas power plants until SMR nuclear is around? More consultations with our neighbours must be needed in order to coordinate the build out of everyone's electricity infrastructure. It did not happen, alas, when the Germans shut down their nuclear facilities. The Ministry of Climate, Energy and UtilitiesDanish Energy Agency Energinet #dkpol #dkgreen #dienergi
