The government has allocated 3 billion hryvnias for boiler houses in Kyiv and the regions — Modular boiler rooms make it possible to quickly organise heat supply in emergency situations.

The Cabinet of Ministers has allocated 3 billion hryvnias from the state budget’s reserve fund to purchase additional modular boiler units for Kyiv and the regions. The decision was taken as part of preparations to help communities cope with the upcoming heating season, following Russian attacks on critical infrastructure.

The Cabinet of Ministers has allocated 3 billion hryvnias from the state budget’s reserve fund for the purchase of additional modular boiler units.

This equipment is intended for Kyiv and the regions, which are preparing for the upcoming heating season amid ongoing Russian attacks on critical infrastructure.

The funds are to be used for the purchase of modular boiler houses and components, as well as for installation and construction work.

How much will Kyiv and the regions receive?

UAH 966 million has been earmarked for Kyiv via the Recovery Agency.

Regional military administrations will receive a further 2 billion UAH.

The funding is being directed towards the implementation of comprehensive regional resilience plans and the development of distributed heat generation.

Why are modular boiler houses needed

Modular boiler houses allow for the rapid organisation of heat supply in crisis situations.

Such facilities can provide heat to hospitals, schools, residential buildings and other vital infrastructure if the centralised heating supply is damaged or operates unreliably.

The government explains this as a move towards a decentralised heat supply model. Such a system is intended to help communities remain resilient even during attacks.

Preparing for winter

The decision to allocate funds is part of systematic preparations for winter, taking military risks into account.

Distributed heat generation is intended to reduce communities’ dependence on large centralised facilities, which could be targets for Russian strikes.

Court overturns 4 million fine following an inspection of ‘Tekhno Yizhak’

During a retrial, the Kharkiv District Administrative Court quashed a tax penalty of 4,038,423 hryvnias imposed on a business owner following an inspection of a shop in the centre of Odesa. The decision was based on irregularities in the way the inspection was arranged, rather than on a refutation of the tax authorities’ claims regarding the accounting of goods.
