Head of Department of the Energy Sector Development and Forecasting, PhD in Economics Roman Podolets and Leading Research Officer of this Department, PhD in Engineering Oleksandr Dyachuk, scientists of the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, took part in the meeting “Energy and Climate Governance in Ukraine – Towards a Green Recovery” in Brussels (Belgium), on March 21, 2024, at which the project of the National Energy and Climate Plan of Ukraine (NPEC) was presented to the European Commission.
All key Ukrainian ministries and agencies, together with independent experts under the auspices of the DiXi Group analytical center and the Institute of Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, with the support of the British Embassy in Ukraine and the American Net Zero World Initiative, participated in the development of this plan. The process was coordinated by the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine.
During the preparation of the NECP, experts from the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine were primarily responsible for modelling and forecasting of the Ukrainian energy development and greenhouse gas emission dynamics, comprehensive assessing of contribution of implementing a wide range of decarbonization measures, renewable energy development, energy efficiency improvement, etc. towards achieving Ukraine’s international commitments under the Energy Community, European integration (in particular, the Association Agreement between Ukraine, of the one part, and the European Union, the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the other part) and the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. For this purpose, they use the TIMES-Ukraine model developed at the Institute, which is widely known at the national and international levels. It has been created to assess the dynamics of the energy system in the long-term perspective. The model is recognized worldwide, as evidenced by numerous scientific publications in the highest-rated professional journals. In recent years, the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine has been applying and developing this model in cooperation with US national laboratories, including the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL).
The Ukrainian team of NECP developers also met with representatives of the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Energy. The main discussion focused on finalizing the draft NECP in accordance with the requirements of the European Union, as well as knowledge exchange, including on additional measures for decarbonizing Ukraine’s economy. Furthermore, at the initiative of the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, some issues and preliminary modelling results for the NECP were discussed.

The starting of the All -Ukrainian Economic Platform “Made in Ukraine” can help to reveal the internal reserves of Ukraine’s economy within the risks caused by long war, on the basis of constant communication, interaction and coordination of state bodies, domestic business, including representatives associations of entrepreneurs and experts. In conditions where the problem of economic stability for Ukraine should be solved with the use of internal reserves, the creation of such a platform for finding common decisions is relevant.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine led to large-scale destruction and enormous problems in Ukrainian agriculture. Among other things, the war demonstrated the extreme vulnerability of the pre-war model of the development of the agricultural sector, which was based on scale effects, the raw nature of agricultural exports, and the deformed structure of agricultural production. Unfortunately, the war did not stop but only intensified the struggle for resources and government support between big business and family farms. In this context, the report “Ukrainian Agriculture in Wartime: Sustainability, Reforms and Markets”, prepared by a group of Ukrainian and European scientists, presents the dynamics and trends of the development of the agricultural sector of Ukraine before the war, gives some results of the influence of military operations on its functioning, and outlines the possibilities its further development in the post-war period. For this purpose, the results of research by the State Organization “Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine” were used, which were supplemented by interviews with representatives of civil society, politicians and representatives of agribusiness conducted by the authors of this report during 2022-2023.
