The report states that 20 million pounds of the total amount is intended to support the functioning of the energy system. In particular, it is about repairing damaged infrastructure, creating additional capacity for generation and protection of energy infrastructure facilities.
"This is a project that will provide the generation of an additional 20 MW, these volumes are enough for about 20 thousand households," the report says.
In addition, 15 million pounds are allocated for humanitarian assistance for the most vulnerable categories of the population. 5 million pounds will come through UNICEF projects, and 10 million — through the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. These funds are intended for the winter arrangement of collective housing for internally displaced people and "winter" cash support.
