Download: Full Report | Executive Summary
This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the critical role of private investment in modernizing Ukraine’s construction industry, with a focus on the potential to scale the adoption of innovative and sustainable construction materials and technologies. The study highlights how scaling up private capital — both domestic and foreign — can accelerate the rebuilding of quality, affordable housing and infrastructure, while also supporting Ukraine’s broader goals of energy efficiency, decarbonization, and alignment with European Union standards.
The report draws on deep-dive analyses and market assessments for selected high-potential construction solutions, such as autoclaved aerated concrete, basalt wool, hempcrete, geopolymer cement, special glazing, precast elements, modular units, robotics, and 3D printing. It evaluates market size, investment models, and the potential aggregate economic and environmental benefits of scaling up these approaches, estimating that sustainable construction could generate up to US$4 billion in investment and 17,000 new direct and indirect jobs. The report also addresses key obstacles — including regulatory gaps, financing constraints, lack of skills and market readiness — and recommends targeted reforms and interventions to unlock Ukraine’s reconstruction potential and foster a resilient, future-ready built environment.
