Leading Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda’s in-depth feature on Ukraine’s most resilient wartime companies spotlights SCM’s energy arm DTEK and steelmaker Metinvest as two of the country’s most significant investors since the start of the full-scale war, against a backdrop of 25% growth in national capital investment in 2025. DTEK alone has committed EUR 2.2 billion to sustaining Ukraine’s energy system — the largest wartime investment by any single Ukrainian company — funding thermal plant restoration, grid repairs, and major renewables projects including a 200 MW battery storage system and the upcoming EUR 1.2 billion Poltava wind farm. Metinvest has invested over $1.2 billion in production and energy independence since 2022, with annual investment set to reach $500 million in 2026, reflecting SCM’s long-term strategy of anchoring Ukraine’s industrial and energy base ahead of post-war recovery.
