The Australian government has transferred EUR 6 million to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund.

This was reported by the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine, Ukrinform reported.

“Australia has contributed an additional EUR 6 million to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund. The Australian government’s funds will be distributed to key urgent needs of the Ukrainian energy sector,” the statement says.

In total, Australia has already contributed the Fund nearly EUR 18 million.

It is noted that the announced contributions from partners currently amount to over EUR 1 billion. Donors come from the public and private sectors in over 30 countries, including EU member states, the UK, and the U.S., as well as international and regional organizations.

As reported, Australia announced in December 2024 that it would transfer EUR 50 million to the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to help Ukraine access a reconstruction loan.
