Abstract

For Ukraine, bioenergy is a key area of renewable energy development, especially in the context of dependence on imported energy sources such as natural gas, oil, and coal. The country has significant biomass potential that has not yet been used for fuel production. The domestic biofuel industry ensures the production of biogas, bioethanol, and green electricity, but each of these fuel types is developed to a different extent. The vast potential of renewable energy available to Ukraine has not yet been fully exploited. Compared to EU countries, Ukraine is only approaching the full utilization of these resources.
