The Programme would aim to strengthen Ukraine’s demand side management/demand response (DSM/DR) programmes by working with Ukraine Transmission System Operator (UKRENERGO) and relevant Oblenergos, the regional Ukrainian Distribution System Operators (DSOs), and an initial sizeable pool of large and medium-size industrial and critical infrastructure electricity consumers to enhance Ukrainian power grid flexibility, load factor and efficiency; and to incentivize end-user energy efficiency. The Programme would combine procurement of equipment for power grid management and for energy/power management within consumers’ facilities with the provision of DSM/ DR expertise and capacity building to personnel of UKRENERGO and Ukrainian DSOs on the one hand, and expertise and capacity building on energy management, energy efficiency & energy demand forecasting to personnel of industrial and other facilities participating in the DSM/ DR programmes. Immediate benefits of UNIDO’s interventions would be to support Ukraine in:1. Reducing number, extension (in terms of customers affected) and duration of planned & unplanned black-outs experienced by Ukraine population and businesses as Ukraine’s power/energy generating capacity is rebuilt2. Reducing industrial and other big consumers’ power demand and energy consumption per unit of output produced (be it good or service), contributing to their improved energy efficiency and energy security3. Equipping UKRENERGO and Ukraine productive sectors with the needed expertise, technologies and experience to significantly and rapidly improve overall energy efficiency and resilience of Ukraine’s critical power infrastructure, paving also the way for future accelerated decarbonization of the power and industry sectors The long-term benefit of UNIDO’s interventions would be to equip Ukraine with the expertise, experience and technological capabilities to manage increased penetration in the power system of decentralized renewable power generation and to drive continual improvement of energy efficiency in all sectors of the economy.
