According to the head of state, one of the elements for the normal functioning of the energy sector of Ukraine is high, efficient, decentralized, resourceful gas generation, which can solve the issue of energy shortages today, and tomorrow transfer to water and balance the new “green” energy.
“In this industry, European and, in particular, German companies are technological leaders in this industry, we have a clear plan on how to build up to 1 gigawatt capacity this year,” Zelensky said.
At the same time, the president emphasized that “we need to talk not only about the future, we need to solve the problems of today.”
