The funds are primarily intended for investments in decentralized heat supply, such as mobile heating units.

“Municipalities must be able to guarantee heating for schools, kindergartens, and hospitals, even if large power plants have been attacked. These energy supply measures will help people organize their daily lives,” Radovan said.

The Ukrainian side made a corresponding request to Germany.
