Another difficult night of attack on energy. The enemy is purposefully destroying Ukraine's gas infrastructure and the country is forced to buy gas abroad to pass the heating season. The difference in value between the foreign and domestic markets hits the economy. And Ukrainian gas remains in the bowels when Ukraine and Ukrainians desperately need it on the eve of winter.

"Our enterprises are ready to work. We keep the team and equipment in readiness. We can start within 48 hours. This will give the country 18-20 million cubic meters of gas per month," said Ivan Gerasimovych, CEO of Smart-Holding, during the event "Energy Holding Ukraine" from RBC-Ukraine.

We do not ask for preferences - we offer a ready-made solution. If you have questions about sanctions, ask them to those to whom they are addressed. In the meantime, the country is losing: much-needed gas, taxes and jobs.

"We have been deliberately maintaining the team for a year now, because we believe that the misunderstanding with the blocking of mining licenses will end in the same way as last summer with Kharkiv assets. Let personal sanctions remain, and we, as a business, fulfill our obligations to Ukrainians. Let us produce gas in the Poltava region" - Ivan Gerasimovich

Andreas Sophocleus, trust manager of Smart Holding and founder of the Kepaky charitable foundation, emphasizes that investors are ready to work in Ukraine, invest and create jobs even during the war. But they need something that no company can provide on its own — political and regulatory stability. And this must be implemented already, and not wait for better times.

The State Budget of Ukraine Received 41% Less Taxes from Smart Holding in the First 9 Months of 2025
As of January–September 2025, the Group’s companies paid 543 million UAH in taxes, which is 41% less than in the same period last year (915 million UAH). This reduction occurred, among other reasons, due to increased government pressure and the blocking of gas production assets of the publicly listed British company Enwell Energy.

Ukraine imports gas, while blocking its own fields
Ukraine has gas, but cannot produce it. Not because of the war. Not because of missiles. Due to the decisions of state bodies.
