Ensuring a stable energy supply is critical for our country. It is crucial for military needs, maintaining the livelihoods of the civilian population, and preserving economic stability. Therefore, it is necessary to implement energy efficiency measures that allow for more efficient use of energy resources. Therefore, we are already beginning to develop mechanisms for implementing an innovative economic policy to ensure energy efficiency in the context of the development of Industries 4.0, 5.0 and the growing risks of the post-war period.

Environmental crimes committed by russian troops cause irreparable damage to the environment. Natural resources suffer from bombing and mining of territories, construction of fortifications, and destruction of buildings. According to KOVA, as of the beginning of 2024, more than 28.8 thousand objects were damaged in the Kyiv region. Among them are almost 26 thousand private and multi-storey buildings. We need to not only get rid of this garbage, but also apply an ecological principle to its disposal. Sort, recycle and reuse the material.
