Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, posted 04 September 2025 18:53

The Strategic Investment Council has approved the Single Project Pipeline (SPP) of Public Investment for 2026, comprising 149 initiatives (60 programmes and 89 projects) with an estimated total cost of UAH 11.4 trillion.

Of these, 75 initiatives continue from 2025, with an additional estimated cost of UAH 1 trillion, while 74 are new, with an estimated cost of UAH 10.4 trillion. These figures represent the total estimated cost of the initiatives, not the funding planned solely for 2026. The SPP enables initiatives to qualify for full or partial state budget funding in 2026 and subsequent budget periods.

Key SPP priorities: resilience of critical infrastructure, uninterrupted basic services for citizens, and logistics for the economy:

  • Municipal infrastructure and services (Ministry for Communities and Territories Development) – 40 (26 programmes, 14 projects)
  • Transport (Ministry for Communities and Territories Development) – 39 (6 programmes, 33 projects)
  • Energy (Ministry of Energy) – 25 (25 projects)
  • Healthcare (Ministry of Health) – 22 (11 programmes, 11 projects)
  • Education and science (Ministry of Education and Science) – 10 (8 programmes, 2 projects)
  • Housing (Ministry for Communities and Territories Development) – 4 (4 programmes)
  • Social sphere (Ministry of Social Policy, Family and Unity) – 4 (2 programmes, 2 projects)
  • Environment (Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture) – 2 (2 programmes)
  • Public services and digitalisation (Ministry of Digital Transformation) – 1 (1 programme)
  • Public finance (Ministry of Finance) – 1 (1 project)
  • Legal activities and justice (Ministry of Justice) – 1 (1 project)

New initiatives underwent a full expert evaluation by three central authorities:

  • Ministry of Economy, Environment and Agriculture: Strategic alignment and economic feasibility (including environmental aspects);
  • Ministry for Communities and Territories Development: Alignment with the State Regional Development Strategy;
  • Ministry of Finance: Financial feasibility.

Projects and programmes follow a full lifecycle approach – from preparation and implementation to operation and completion – incorporating cross-cutting state priorities such as energy efficiency, climate change adaptation, gender equality, and accessibility. For 2025 ongoing initiatives, a transitional approach applies, assessing only strategic alignment and reporting.

The Government is advancing the Public Investment Management (PIM) reform to enhance strategic planning at state and local levels, improve transparency, accountability, and efficiency of fund use, and introduce medium-term planning and digital investment management tools. Training for communities and regions on new procedures, medium-term planning, and the DREAM system is ongoing.
