According to DFC, the installation will be capable of supplying electricity to 600,000 households for two hours. DTEK described the agreement as the largest DFC credit deal in Ukraine&#8217;s energy sector since the start of the full-scale invasion.<\/p>\n<p>The DFC board \u2014 which includes Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent \u2014 approved the energy financing on September 16 as part of a broader support package for Ukraine. On the same day, the board approved up to $350 million for Vodafone Ukraine to upgrade its telecommunications infrastructure and develop a secure 5G network, a resource that American companies operating in Ukraine will also be able to access.<\/p>\n<p>DFC is a partner in the American-Ukrainian Reconstruction Investment Fund (URIF). The fund&#8217;s first deal, completed in March 2026, was an investment in Ukrainian technology company Sine Engineering.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:1.5em;font-size:.9em;color:#555\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/babel.ua\/news\/130244-ssha-vkladut-milyoni-v-ukrajinsku-5g-merezhu-ta-sistemu-nakopichennya-energiji\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u0411\u0430\u0431\u0435\u043b\u044c<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) has approved financing of up to $185 million for a large-scale battery energy storage system in Ukraine, covering six installation sites across the country.
