The funding forms part of the Netherlands’ support for Ukraine’s energy sector.
The enemy is systematically targeting gas production infrastructure in an attempt to deprive Ukrainians of heat. Additional funding for gas purchases will strengthen the resilience of the energy system and help ensure a stable heating season. I thank the Government of the Netherlands and the EBRD for supporting Ukraine’s energy sector,” said Sergii Fedorenko, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Naftogaz.
The grant will be provided alongside EBRD financing. It builds on the EBRD’s support for Naftogaz to replenish Ukraine’s gas reserves.
The Netherlands have been a steadfast partner to the EBRD in our efforts to ensure Ukraine’s energy security. We are grateful for this grant contribution to Naftogaz, which will be provided alongside our own financing for gas purchases and will support gas supply to Ukraine this winter,” said Arvid Tuerkner, EBRD Managing Director for Ukraine and Moldova.
In 2025, the Bank lent Naftogaz €770 million through two loans of €270 million and €500 million. Norway provided grants alongside both loans.
