To ensure uninterrupted business operations and reduce dependence on external factors, the state has introduced financial support instruments aimed at strengthening the energy resilience of entrepreneurs and creating conditions for stable business activity even during prolonged power outages.
Ukrainian citizens registered as sole proprietors (individual entrepreneurs) and classified as micro or small businesses are eligible to apply for this support.
The funds received may be used to improve business energy resilience, including the purchase of generators and related components, batteries and energy storage systems, inverters and charging stations, solar panels, voltage stabilizers, protective equipment, cables and installation materials, as well as fuel for generators. Expenses for installation, repair, and maintenance of such equipment are also allowed.
Thanks to state support in the field of energy efficiency, entrepreneur Iryna Cherednychenko obtained the fuel needed for her generator and ensured the uninterrupted operation of her business during power outages. Participation in the project allowed her to avoid downtime, maintain business processes, and continue serving customers even during complete electricity shutdowns. This solution became critically important for the stability of her business.
We remind you that the program is available until May 31, 2026. Applications can be submitted through the Diia portal: https://diia.gov.ua/services/dopomoha-fop-na-enerhostiikist.
