A model for sustainable reconstruction
Despite the challenges of ongoing conflict, Ukrainian cities are stepping forward to lead the clean energy transition. ANEW-LIFE is a European-funded project committed to empowering local governments and communities to rebuild a cleaner, more resilient energy infrastructure in Ukraine.
Led by EnGreen, ANEW-LIFE develops and tests innovative financing mechanisms that make urban energy reconstruction not only possible, but sustainable. Starting with three pilot cities—Zhytomyr, Kalush, and Nizhyn—the project lays the foundation for broader national and European replication.
Impact
ANEW-LIFE is more than a project—it’s a blueprint for energy resilience. Through a combination of technical innovation and social collaboration, we aim to:
➡️ Inspire and inform clean energy policy at municipal levels
➡️ Demonstrate practical, scalable financing solutions
➡️ Support Ukraine’s reconstruction efforts through energy transformation
➡️ By validating tools and methods in real cities in Ukraine, ANEW-LIFE sets the stage for tangible and scalable results across Europe.
Obiective principale
➡️ Co-Creation of Clean Energy Plans: Developing bottom-up methodologies and financing instruments that support city-led energy planning
➡️ Innovative Financing Tools: Validating new financial models informed by advanced energy modelling and direct stakeholder engagement
➡️ Replication Across Ukraine and the EU: Sharing results and methodologies with at least 10 Ukrainian and 10 European cities, promoting broad adoption
➡️ Sustainability and Long-Term Impact: Assessing the project’s replicability, sustainability, and contribution to Ukraine’s energy independence
