Head of the State Energy Efficiency Agency of Ukraine (SAEE), Anna Zamazeeva, held a meeting with UNIDO representatives, with whom she discussed a joint project to support businesses in the implementation of energy efficiency measures and energy management systems.

"We are ready to help enterprises obtain loans for the introduction of energy management and energy-efficient measures. The amount for one enterprise will be up to $150,000. Micro-grants for small and medium-sized businesses will also be provided as part of the project," said the Head of the SAEE.

"Energy management and energy efficiency measures are still a relatively new concept for Ukrainian business. But we want it to be implemented by as many Ukrainian enterprises as possible, both large and small and medium-sized. This is about reducing production cost, increasing business profitability and creating new jobs. And, of course, about the energy security of the country as a whole," - emphasized Anna Zamazeeva.

The participants of the meeting discussed the prospects for further cooperation and potential tools to support the implementation of energy management systems and energy-efficient projects in industry and communities.
