Summary:

The recent collapse of the Soviet Union brought independence to Ukraine. In making the transition to a market economy, however, Ukraine has been plagued by energy shortages due to declining oil, gas, and coal production in the region. At the same time, several of Ukraine's nuclear reactors were built using the Chernobyl model and may have to be shut down. This report provides information on (1) trends and problems related to Ukraine's energy imports and production, (2) Ukraine's energy needs and steps being taken or planned to address them, (3) factors that discourage U.S. trade with and investment in Ukraine's energy sector, and (4) U.S. government efforts to assist in developing Ukraine's energy sector.
