‼️ "95 projects worth 40 billion euros": Zelensky spoke about the important outcomes of the Carpathian Economic Forum
For the first time the Carpathian macroregion is presenting itself as a single market with a unified investment portfolio. Also today more than 50 agreements totaling over one billion euros are prepared for signing. And this is just the beginning.
About half of the portfolio is in energy, and this could become one of the Carpathians' main contributions to Europe. Solar and wind power. Energy storage. New interconnectors. Our large underground gas storage facilities. It is also proposed to create a Carpathian wind energy cluster with a capacity of 1,5 gigawatts.
The Carpathians can become a supplier of energy to the European Union, not just a transit region. And this directly supports the European goal of energy independence from Russia.
